Simple Seasonal – Winter
A great place to start, our Simply Seasonal menus are designed to cover all of the basic culinary skills and techniques. Recipes are great for quick weekday meals or combined to build a more elaborate dining experience. Each 3 course meal includes one starter, an entrée with two sides, and something sweet or savory to finish. Food for the evening generally costs an average of $40.00, depending on how well stocked your pantry is.
