Van Gogh table
While visiting France with his family, Walter became friends with the family that own Auberge Ravoux. The family spent hours at the restaurant and upon their return to Carmel, found the table that they spent time, and Van Gogh used to eat at, waiting for them at Casanova as a gift. The table was made a permanent fixture at the restaurant. It is available for special occasions and meals. In April 2015, Casanova celebrated Vincent Van Gogh's birthday by creating a series of art inspired prix fixe meals paired with wines.
