It was All About Beer! Local Beer… and local food!

Our 2nd Bi-Annual Local Dinner was a huge success! In the 1st event last fall, we featured local wine with each local food course. This time, we featured local beer! We were honored to have Julie Johnson as our special guest host from All About Beer Magazine to guide us through each beer selection. She was an excellent presenter and everyone enjoyed her humor as well as her knowledge!

Our Head Chef, Bobby, prepared Local Strawberry Flambe on the dining room floor, which then topped local Maple View Dairy Ice Cream! It was a spectacular show to have fire on the floor!

Other local items on the menu included blue-deviled eggs, Sandy Creek Goat Cheese, mild Italian sausage, tenderloin, Poulet Rouge, and local catfish.  We’re looking forward to our next Local Dinner in the fall. Watch our website for dates; it will likely be in early October and we would LOVE to wow you with our next spectacular show of local food and drink!
