Grand Rapids / Michigan / United States
From rare wines and artisan cheeses to artful glassware, Art of the Table has one of the most unusual gift selections in all of Grand Rapids. When we dress up your gifts, theres no extra charge for the wrapping, ribbons or gift tags. Our staff has plenty of ideas to get your creative juices flowing, because whatever the occasion, no matter your budget, we can create personal, one-of-a-kind gift baskets for one, or even one hundred, of your closest friends. When it comes to corporate gifts, were all business. finding unique gifts for clients and staff can be a taxing task. Were elated so many area businesses have turned to Art of the Table to solve their corporate gift giving needs. Whether its holiday gifts, thank you gifts to clients or retreat goody bags, we will work with you to create meaningful gifts perfect for your needs. We strive to be creative and sometimes we dont even use baskets. Weve created themed gifts for paella-loving customers using paella pans. Weve also used bowls, boards and even books or boxes as the base for our custom gift baskets. We love to taste good things, and we want you to experience them too, so we are continually giving you in-store opportunities to meet the experts and learn from our experiences. We have daily food samplings using products we sell, and we host other fun events like knife sharpening and knife skills classes. Off-site at least twice a month we partner with local restaurants to give you a chance to try beverages you probably havent had a chance to try before. We take the idea that you might enjoy learning while sipping, so we choose a theme like New World Reds where we choose 6 different wines from the US, Australia or Chile for example and we sit down to compare. Every tasting is a different theme and our events calendar gives a glimpse of the current lineup. We encourage you attend on your own or with small groups of friends, book clubs that have just read a book on wine, couples celebrating an anniversary or simply just an excuse for a fun evening out. Tastings always include some food from the restaurant and range from $20-40 depending on the theme. We really like to be laid back about things. However, we and the restaurant go through a lot of effort and expense planning and executing a wine tasting. We wont bore you with the details of that, however, heres what we need and promise:
