New Late Spring Menu

Last week we started our new menu. It is full of local grown vegetables. Jeff Isbell's farmstead salad with radish, sweet onions and heirloom yellow pear tomatoes finished with honey comb vinaigrette. We added a blackened tuna on flat bread with basil goat cheese pesto, shaved red onions and micro greens. Cornmeal fried gulf oysters, lemon tarter sauce, slaw, and pickled okra. The dish I'm really happy about is the grilled flat iron steak, vidalia onion gratin, asparagus, and chimichurri butter. I will post pictures soon of the new dishes.

The pictures above are Brandywine and Black Krim to show what the tomato's will look like.

Goldman's Italian American Heirloom Tomato

This heirloom tomato was found by Amy Goldman. Author of The Heirloom Tomato from Farm to Table. She found it at a road side stand in Cernobbio Italy in 1999 . It was named Goldman's Italian American after her father grocery store in Brooklyn. I was able to score a few seeds from her.
