A letter from Chef Mark Smith
After the tremendous success of our Vegetarian Nights followed
by our popular Celiac Awareness Night, I got to thinking: why not add these two great options to all our menus?
So for this year's FIRST FARM FRESH DINNER...I've made our
four course meal both Vegetarian and Celiac friendly. Who says you can't be all things to all people?
On Thursday, June 18 at 6:30 pm, our restaurant will celebrate
South Jersey farms, beginning with our neighbors, Springdale Farms of Cherry Hill. We're hosting a 4 course meal for just $29.95/person
- with Vegetarian and Celiac friendly options - spotlighting the good things coming out of Springdale's fields.
Guest speaker John Ebert of Springdale Farms will join me
to introduce each course...how the foods are grown and harvested, then cooked and prepared for your table.. Four
delicious courses, each one spotlighting the farm’s fresh produce!

Our Farm Fresh dinners give me a chance to go table to table to talk about how we prepare the fresh
produce we get from our local farms.
