This is the culinary event of the summer! For the 7th year in a row we are inviting local food lovers to help us complete the farm-to-table circle and enjoy the best food of the season elbow-to-elbow with the people who grew it – the folks from Tantré Farm.

The details of the multi-course meal remain secret until the last moment, since Chef Rodger and his kitchen crew hand-select most of the fresh ingredients the morning of the feast! But when you take your seats and see what they’ve prepared, your mouth will water and your pulse will quicken – each year the menu is more inspired and more perfectly tuned to the season.

The folks at Tantré Farm work hard year-round to produce an amazing variety of organic fruits and vegetables for the Deli. This meal is our way of saying “thank you” the best way we know how – with a feast prepared to highlight their fantastic offerings. This evening is always an early sell-out — Sign up now!

SOLD OUT!

Our annual August tradition of transforming the Deli’s Patio into an Italian Street Food Fest is one of
the highlights of the year. Come and and watch as we cut those 80# wheels of Parmigiano Reggiano
cheese into approachable chunks. Witness as we turn curd into delectably soft balls of mozzarella.

Tea arrived in Amsterdam in 1610 and took another fifty years to arrive in London. By 1751, the British were drinking two cups a day on average. Today tea in enjoyed world over as a beverage second only to water. The story of tea’s rise to dominance is not a happy one, but illustrates how a commodity product can drastically change the political and socioeconomic landscape of the world.

Come join us as we taste the teas that changed history, from the Opium War to the Colonization of India. This will be the traditional British tea tasting you’ve all been waiting for, taught through the vantage of a geeky history major.
