“As a child it was very special to go with Daddy (Puna) to the City Club. Decades later the Club is as elegant, romantic and mystical as it has ever been. It is an honor to be a member of what was once a “Gentlemen’s Only” club, of which my grandfather and father belonged. “I must admit, I do feel slightly naughty when I walk into the “men’s” grill.”

“Business lunches, Symphony and Opera Louisiane pre-performance dinners with friends and spending time with Darren late in the day when downtown traffic is bad all make my membership at City Club very valuable to me. I love bringing new friends to City Club and introducing them to Chef Brandt’s fine dining menu and the superior service of every staff member. Thanks City Club.”

“I always check the calendar in “Veranda Views” when it arrives for upcoming events. We have great memories at the City Club over the years with family and friends. My favorites include The Low Country Boil, The Evening Dinner with Santa and The Pearl Luncheon!”

“I love discovering the world through wine and food, and if you can’t get away to Italy or South America or Australia, a City Club Wine Society tasting is the next best thing. As Cellar Master this year, I’ve sought to present wines from varied regions so we can all get a little taste of the great wine regions of the world right here in Baton Rouge. The Wine Society is anything but intimidating, it’s actually a lot of fun and a great way to try wines from around the world!”

“My entire family enjoys the events at the City Club that include people of all ages, especially the Santa Brunches and Spanish Town Mardi Gras. The Wine Society events provide remarkably delightful and memorable adult evenings.”
