Dinner Menu

So you know that beer dinner I keep mentioning?  The one for SF Beer Week? We’ve been hard at work on a menu – one that takes great beer and showcases it alongside creative food.  After a few iterations, and a lot of beer tasting, Chef Jen has put together a menu that I think is really exciting.  This is our semi-final menu, and it is subject to possible to changes, based on availability of seasonal ingredients, and the whims of the chef.

    Any chance you could change the date of the dinner to Friday the 13th?

    That’d be great, cause I’ll be in SF, thanks.

    It looks yummy. I have no clue what half the things on the menu are or how they are pronounced, but it makes me wish I would be in SF to find out.

    If you have any questions about the menu, feel free to ask away, and I’ll be happy to answer as best I can. And to answer preemptively, no, there is no kosher alternative.
