Reading Fort Lauderdale magazine which advertises a wine pairing experience from restaurants in South Florida. You give us a site to go to but nowhere can I find more info or where to buy tickets. Please advise. Thanks.
I also cannot find site to order tickets for this latest “fine & wine” events
Tickets for this year’s events are available now at fortlauderdalemagazine.com/dine.
I called Trulucks for more information and the manager said he’s never heard of this event taking place this month at his restaurant. Also, I called the Dine number for more information several times. Every time it said please leave a message. Don’t want to spend $175 x 4 when there is no one to answer questions.
Hi, Jen.
I’m sorry you haven’t been able to get a hold of us! Perhaps the incorrect phone number is listed somewhere. The phone number on the DINE Fort Lauderdale website should connect you with our magazine’s office. Regardless, we’ll try to reach out via email.
Also cannot find anything on website about the Trulucks dinner listed on 4/17/25!!!!
What gives!!! I thought the price was 125.00 now I see above 175.00
Why did you not leave the correct number to the customer above? Very poor communication.
I have (had) a table of 6 interest in the event but if I don’t get a call that ends that.
