Date Novel University Place
Bistro Under the Stars
Some evenings deserve a little more romance. Plated Possibilities invites you to Bistro Under the Stars — an elevated French bistro experience beneath the open sky on the terrace of Novel University Place.
The night opens with cocktail hour inside the clubroom, then rises to the terrace for a candlelit French dinner served course by course, under a radiant and bright starlit sky. Expect the soul of a Parisian bistro — classic techniques, seasonal ingredients, and unhurried elegance — reimagined for one unforgettable night in Charlotte.
Featured Chef — Chef Tiore McFarland
Chef Tiore’s love of food was planted in her grandfather’s backyard garden, where vegetables pulled fresh from the soil became meals that filled their house with warmth. That early lesson — that food is connection, creativity, and love — led her to L’Académie de Cuisine, a French culinary school, an apprenticeship in Paris, and almost over a decade sharpening her craft across hotels, high-end restaurants, and catering kitchens. As a former educator turned culinary instructor and personal chef, she pairs classical French technique with a teacher’s heart; making exceptional food feel accessible, exciting, and full of intention. In her words: “At the end of the day, I just want to make cooking easy and fun.” For Bistro Under the Stars, she’s bringing that artistry and more, to the table.
