The Grand Cafe misfit dinner series looks to celebrate and highlight “misfit” animals and techniques that reach beyond traditional French brasserie style dishes—animals that aren’t often featured on our every day menus and techniques from different regions in France and different time periods too. This dinner series also gives us a chance to celebrate the local purveyors we work with. Chef Alicia Jenish presents specials from McCormack & Long Ranch.
