“Outstanding in the Field” Event Tickets On Sale Now
The “roving culinary adventure” returns to Northern California in June when local CSA Farm Fresh to You and Grange Restaurant & Bar team up for the second year to host an Outstanding in the Field dinner event at Capay Organic Farm in Capay, CA. (We hear last year’s event sold out in 72 hours!)
With tickets to the event selling for $190 per person, we couldn’t wait to find out what this culinary evening would entail. So what does a ticket get you?
The dinner starts with a reception with wine and passed appetizers followed by a four-course, seated meal with wine pairings. Guests are seated at a long table for the meal composed by Grange’s executive chef Oliver Ridgeway in Outstanding in the Field’s nomadic al fresco kitchen. Dinner is served family style (or farm style). During the meal, brothers Noah Barnes and Thaddeus and Freeman Barsotti of Farm Fresh to You, who provided ingredients for the menu, talk about their respective crafts and diners are encouraged to ask questions. The dinner event also includes a farm tour hosted by the brothers.
To us, this sounds more like an ultimate dining experience than a mere meal, and with Sacramento’s new Farm-to-Fork Capital designation, it’s an event we’re glad has returned to NorCal.
