Saturday July 18: Favorites

A four-year-old friend of ours often asks, “will you do me a favorite?” and we like to comply--by reading her a book or helping her with the sprinkler. This Saturday, we’re going to do a favorite for all the people who haven't had MSF Rice or butter fried cornbread in a while. We’ll be serving up a whole menu of favorite dishes from MSFs past and present, with no pesky guest chefs getting in the way.

Also, did we mention that we’re officially a “Favorite Place” on Google’s ever more detailed map of the known world?

Profits for this evening will go to The Food Pantry, which does not play favorites. (Their motto is “Peace on Earth and Food for All!”)

MENU:

Mango Salad: with tomatillo, black olive, fennel, red onion - $5.5

Fish 'n' Chips: Halibut with batter-fried lemon "chips" and homemade caper tartar sauce - $13

Aged Prime Ribeye: with wild mushroom, shelling bean and golden chive - $14

MSF Rice: Smoky Rice fried in Duck Fat with Duck Confit, Duck Cracklins, Shitake, and Cauliflower- $8

VSF Rice: Smoky Rice fried in olive oil with Shitake, Cauliflower and Tofu Tempura - $6.5

PB & J: Berkshire Kurobuta Pork Belly with marinated jicama, pickled jalapeno and cilantro aioli - $6.5

Lung Shan's Vegan Delight: Shitake and Oyster Mushroom Dumplings in Miso Soup - $5.5

Butter Fried Cornbread with Buttermilk Pannacotta and Mint Julep Honey - $6

Humphry Slocombe Secret Breakfast Ice Cream - $3.25

And - keeping with the 4 year old's vernacular, when you put the food down and the patron thanks you, you'll say "no pleasure."

My God this was one of the meals I have ever had.
