Everyone needs to check this out. These guys are amazing. Jim and Katy are two amazing folks who choose out of the way locales to set up tables, and then create meals right there, from local organic produce! It's an experience. Today at 9 a.m. Pacific, they are going to start taking reservations for this season. Here's this year's schedule.
"Culinary celebrations at the source
Set between the soil and the sky, Outstanding in the Field's long, linen-draped table beckons adventurous diners to celebrate food at the source. Bringing together local farmers and food artisans, chefs and winemakers, we explore the connection between the earth and the food on your plate. Join us as we feast on the gifts of the land."
Sounds lovely doesn't it?? Anyone up for it? It's not cheap, but it's an experience. Let me know.
More info:
"Outstanding in the Field is a roving culinary adventure - literally a restaurant without walls. Since 1999 we have set the long table at farms or gardens, on mountain tops or in sea caves, on islands or at ranches. Occasionally the table is set indoors: a beautiful refurbished barn, a cool greenhouse or a stately museum. Wherever the location, the consistent theme of each dinner is to honor the people whose good work brings nourishment to the table.
Ingredients for the meal are almost all local (sometimes sourced within inches of your seat at the table!) and generally prepared by a celebrated chef of the region. After a tour of the site, we all settle in: farmers, producers, culinary artisans, and diners sharing the long table."
