This Thursday we are pleased to present a menu highlighting various forms and preparations of (delicious!) fungus--dreamed up by Ian Marks, executive chef of the Hog Island Oyster Co. (formerly of The Liberty Cafe and The Fatted Calf).
MSF profits will go to Martin de Porres House of Hospitality, a free restaurant at 225 Potrero Avenue near 16th Street that has been serving their community since 1971. Their program is especially uplifting because of the altruistic spirit of their volunteers--some of whom are full-time, live on site and earn no money.

Huitlacoche and sweet corn soup with crispy tortilla, avocado, seared pasilla peppers, cilantro - $5.5
