Oberyn was ever the viper. Deadly, dangerous, unpredictable. No man dared tread on him.  – Doran Martell

Geek Crusade invites you to pay your last respects to the late, great Oberyn Martell. Join us for our latest Dinner is Coming event as we celebrate the Game of Thrones fandom over food, conversation, and this time, funeral rites.

   Requiem for the Red Viper

All praise the name of Oberyn of the House Martell, Prince of Dorne, the Red Viper and father to the Sand Snakes! Come join us for a celebration like no other in the Seven Kingdoms, as we bring the Prince’s body home to Dorne. Lay our sweet Prince to rest with us, then feast on the best that Dorne has to offer.

Inspired by A Song Of Ice And Fire, the high fantasy epic by George R. R. Martin, our latest dinner will begin with a solemn ceremony to commemorate the life and death of Oberyn Martell. This will be followed by a lavish tasting menu inspired by the cuisine of Dorne and the history of House Martell.  Seats are limited to a party of 50, and here’s what’s on the menu.
