Chef Matthew Mulder prepares our first Grateful Graze farm to table dinner for Valentine’s Day.
We are fortunate to have Chef Matthew Mulder as a part of our livestock team. He will prepare a five course dinner starting at 6:30 pm in Cambridge, IL. This is a private dinner and seating is limited to 44 people.
Here’s what’s on the menu…
Course One - Deviled Egg Trio
Grateful Graze eggs gathered that morning and prepared three ways
The BLT egg
The Pickled egg
The Ocean egg
Course Two - Strawberry Almond Poppyseed Salad
A winter green mix from the Mad Farmer blended with strawberries, toasted almonds topped with Maytag Blue Cheese, Grateful Graze bacon, and poppyseed vinaigrette
Course Three - Soft Honey Rye Rolls
Made from Bottens Family Farm rye and locally grown wheat served with honey butter made from local honey
Course Four - Grilled Grateful Graze Filet Mignon
An 8 oz filet crowns a winter vegetable root mash and grilled asparagus all drizzled with Merchand de vin sauce
Course Five - Belgian Chocolate Dipped Strawberries atop Frangelico Mousse
The Combine Bar & Grill offers a relaxed farm style atmosphere that will pair well with our local flavor filled dinner. Their full bar is available for purchase of your favorite beverages. May we suggest the J Lohr hilltop Cabernet Sauvignon, a perfect pairing.
We realize Valentine’s Day is typically a date night with the one you love, but the location is more geared toward group seating. You will not have a private table. Bring another couple with you or be ready to meet someone new. For regular farm to table dinners this is normal, but for Valentine’s Day we’re a little concerned it is different.
