Dinner and Discussion after the Met in HD Opera Movie

Join your opera-loving FitC friends for dinner and discussion after the Metropolitan Opera’s Live in HD final production of the season.  Buy your own tickets to this magical-realist portrait of Mexico’s painterly power couple Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera, showing at the Cinemark University City Penn.  

At the conclusion of the movie (at about 4:30 p.m.), we can meet and hop on the SEPTA 40 bus from the corner of Walnut and 40^th, right opposite the movie theatre, and take it to the end of the line on Lombard and 2^nd Streets where we will proceed for dinner and discussion about the opera and the artists at Tamalex Bar and Grill, 122 Lombard Street.  Enjoy authentic Mexican cuisine “known to locals as the most home-like and delicious place in the city” (Tamalex Bar & Grill).

Event Limit: 8 FitC Members.

Event Cost: $6:00 includes $1.00 FitC service charge. You will receive $5 cash back at the restaurant to use towards your meal.  Please be prepared to pay with cash as multiple credit cards are not accepted.  Refunds (less $2.00 FitC fee) by May 25, 2026. 

Accessibility: The restaurant has two steps to the entrance. 

Parking: There is metered parking on 2^nd Street and a parking lot on Lombard between 2^nd and 3^rd Streets.
