FOOD

THE TUCK ROOM
As if it wasn’t enough that iPic, the new uber-luxury, service-oriented cinemas in the
the River Oaks District, opened its doors last month, they also launched their first gastro lounge concept. When you first visit you will be so in awe of the theater that you probably
won’t notice the discreet lounge quietly tucked in an intimate alcove overlooking the restaurant.

CHEF SHERRY YARD and Master mixolo-

gist/advanced sommelier ADAM SEGER come together to create a carefully crafted menu synergizing food and drink in a way not expected at a movie theater. Creative cocktails including their
Hand Shaken Tuck Margarita or a Bee’s Knees are all made to order and can be taken into the
movie. With attention to local craft beers, herbs and liquors, customization is key here. The wine
list is made up of more than 100 selections, including local options as well. Once you pick your
poison, choose from oysters or an amazing Spicy Tuna Hand Roll, Angus Sliders or a Charcuterie
board. Dessert is also given the special treatment with a Lemon Box Cake or a Peanut Butter Bar
among the delicious options. There’s no need to kill time anywhere else before your next movie.
