Whidbey honey highlights dinner

Whidbey Island bees will provide the key ingredients for a special dinner at The Inn at Langley on Oct. 29.

Chef Matt Costello will use honey or bee byproducts for all six courses of a tasting menu. Co-host is Dr. Brad Weeks, a Whidbey resident and expert in apitherapy, the treatment of disease or illness through the use of honeybees or bee products.

The dinner begins at 7 p.m., starting with a brief discussion on the availability of varieties of local honey, from savory to sweet.

Cost is $95 per person, which includes honey meads from several local breweries. An optional wine pairing per course will be available for $85 per person. Tax and gratuity are not included.
