This Saturday we are pleased to have Matt Butler and Terri Wu. Matt currently works at Epic Roadhouse and Serpentine, but has been cooking for 20 years, including sous chef at Fork and Cafe Majestic and years at CIA Greystone, Rubicon Winery, Kendall Jackson, and Angele. Terri Wu has worked at Farallon for 10 years, and has been pastry chef for the last 6 years.

So is the dumpling soup the only vegetarian option on Saturday?

The pea soup can be vegetarian, as can the roasted king trumpet. We'll also be adding a tofu salad.

I'd just like to express my support for serving meat.
