The Tale of Two Chefs Signature Dinner included craft ale and wine pairings, and featured both classic techniques as well as more modern ones like creating garden herb foams for the potato salad, and pea panna cotta. One of my favorite items from the meal was a twice cooked potato that came with a rack of lamb…the flavor and texture of the potato was truly amazing.

Below are some photos of the wonderful evening:
