Mangalitsa Hogs

These beautiful piggies are providing us with some tasty cheeks for our house cured Guanciale on the new menu. These heritage breed hogs can trace their European lineage all the way back to the early 1800's and are bread especially for their lard content, which makes em soooo good!!! Look for the Capellini Amatriciana with Guanciale, tomato, pepercino, and shaved parmesan  on our new dinner menu.

Charcuterie Program

With our new menu just a couple of weeks away we've decided to go "all in" with our cheese and charcuterie. Most of you already know that we've been making our own sausages and fresh mozzarella since we opened, but just recently started curing and smoking bacon, pork cheeks (guanciale), duck prosciutto, saucisson, coppa, and dry cured peperone. The peperone you see to left are the first slices we've tried and they are awesome. Look for all of this goodness on the menu update coming soon!
As far as the cheese goes, we will continue to stretch our own fresh mozzarella, and are in the process of building a cheese press for some fresh farmers style cheeses that will be on the cheese board this winter.

Spruce Up!!!

Thanks everyone for being so patient these last couple of days while we repainted and installed new carpeting throughout the restaurant! My iphone pics don't do it justice, so you'll have to come down and see for yourself.

Just putting the finishing touches on our fall/winter menu changes, so keep an eye out for that as well.

The Devils Shrimp!

Our Gamberoni Fra Diavolo for tonights special will take the chill right out of the air!!

Updating

Just want to give everyone a heads up that I will be updating the Chefs blog regularly after a somewhat long hiatus!! Keep an eye out for new posts!
