Our Heirloom Tomato Menu is Announced!
We are just a little more than one week out for our annual heirloom tomato dinner (Wednesday, August 31, 6:30 p.m.) and are very excited to announce… (drumroll please) the menu of delectable tomato dishes that Chef David will be serving!
For those of you who have not joined us previously for this summer extravaganza here’s the drill: a reception and multi-course menu highlighting the versatile tomato at the height of the season, including wine pairings, while hanging out with Nick Nichols of Nichols Farm & Orchard. This once-a-year celebration is only $68 per person plus tax and gratuity. For more information or reservations, call 312-642-8450!
And now, without further ado…
