Tasting menus,
four nights a week

Eight courses from the valley market, cooked over fire for forty-four chairs. Wednesday through Saturday, two seatings a night.

The idea

The market writes the first draft every morning. The hearth edits it every night. We close three nights a week so both can keep it up — and so can the people cooking it.
