Good afternoon!

We had a record-setting weekend for Mother’s Day weekend! Thanks to everyone who came out. It was really great to see you all!

Dalla Terra Wine Dinner
We have some spots left for our Dalla Terra wine dinner on Thursday, May 28th, at 6pm.

Reservations are on OpenTable or email us, and we will put you in. These are some truly phenomenal wines from regions throughout Italy, paired with some quintessential classical Italian dishes. I’m so excited for this one- and it’ll be super fun cooking Bistecca alla Florentina for everyone that night! The menu and wine selections are below!

Friday & Saturday
For Friday and Saturday night dinners this weekend, I am making courgette carpaccio with shaved spring porcinis and a mascarpone stuffed squash blossom with lemon, pine nuts, and sorrel from the garden. Carrot-date soup is next with toasted pistachios and wagyu bresaola. Roasted beet caprese salad is next with pesto, red onion marmalade, aged balsamic, and fresh mozzarella. Tagliata di manzo is for the entrée with giardiniera, arugula, roasted purple potatoes, and Campari tomatoes. Rhubarb crostata is for dessert with cara cara orange-ginger zabaglione! Really excited for this menu!

Sunday
For Sunday lunches, I’m starting it off with duck rillettes with huckleberries, a toasted baguette, and pickled vegetables. Watercress soup is next with creme fraiche and ramps. Salade Parisienne is third with local butter lettuce, p’tit basque cheese, ham, hard-boiled local eggs, fingerling potatoes, and tarragon vinaigrette. Grilled lamb loin is the entree with mashed English peas, roasted carrots, carrot top persillade, and fennel soubise. Profiteroles are for dessert with pistachio ice cream and chocolate ganache! Yum!

Hope to see everyone soon!

Good afternoon! We still have some room for Saturday and Sunday.

Saturday Menu
For Friday and Saturday night dinners this weekend, I am making bacalao fritters with rouille sauce, watercress, and ramps. So excited for the first ramps of the season! These wild leeks are very sought after by chefs and always feel like such a prize when they first come out in the spring! Asparagus bisque follows with white miso, lovage, and crispy farro. The lovage comes from a friend with a thriving garden in Santa Fe; it’s so nice to have that back in my ingredient repertoire! Dinosaur kale from Khalsa Farms is next as a Caesar salad with lots of Parmesan and sauteed maitake mushrooms. Prime wagyu bavette steak is the entree grilled over charcoal with white beans, local carrots, and herb-caper sauce. Buttermilk panna cotta is for dessert with roasted rhubarb and amaretti cookies. I made these cookies a few weeks ago, and they came out so great that I had to do a repeat!

Sunday Lunch Menu
We are only doing the first seating of lunch on Sunday at 11:30am, as we have a private dinner Sunday night that has an early start. We have a few spots left, so please let me know soon if you can come. I am starting the lunch menu off with my chicken liver mousse with red onion marmalade, toasted brioche, and pickled vegetables- a classic! Artichoke and carrot bisque is for the second course with saffron, shaved Spanish chorizo, and pistachios. Snap pea and snow pea salad is next, with truly incredible peas from Khalsa farms- they do so well with the peas, and I always try to buy all of them they have! I’m serving the salad with poached shrimp, radish, tarragon, and cara cara oranges. Confit pork belly is the entree with quince butter, Brussels sprout leaves, and marble potatoes. Amarena cherry frangipane is for dessert with creme fraiche chantilly.

Hope to see everyone soon!

Good afternoon!

I have added the Mother’s Day menu below.

For Friday and Saturday night dinners this weekend, I am doing a very French-inspired menu. I’m starting it off with vol-au-vent with wild shrimp, fava bean puree, and fine herbs. Next is consommé with hen-of-the-woods mushrooms, bok choy, snow peas, and horseradish. Sauteed asparagus is third with duck egg gribiche, pine nuts, radish, and watercress. Roasted duck breast is the entree with fennel-gruyere gratin, Parisienne potatoes, and gastrique. Creme caramel is for dessert with palet breton cookies!

For lunch on Sunday, I am making English pea bruschetta with pecorino romano, mint, and pea shoots. White bean soup is next with piquillo peppers and almond crema. Nicoise salad is third with haricot vert, local bantam chicken eggs, confit tuna, baby Yukon Golds, and Campari tomatoes. Braised lamb cheeks are for the entrée with parsley root puree, roasted beets, and blistered muscat grapes. Tiramisu is a dessert with ladyfingers, mascarpone, and cocoa powder!

Hope to see everyone soon!
