Kick off the New Year with a multi-course meal made entirely with local ingredients! The next Chef Cooperative pop-up dinner in San Antonio is a fundraiser for Parr Vineyards at the Fig Tree Restaurant at the Dashiell House on Saturday, January 10th.
Parr, located in Boerne, has been hit particularly hard by the recent drought and cold freezes. The highly anticipated dinner will showcase ingredients from over 30 local farms and vendors, prepared by 13 of the city’s best chefs, including Fig Tree’s Chef Laurent Rae.
Each of the menu’s seven (7) courses will be paired with a local wine from Pedernales Cellars, or a beer or spirit from Ranger Creek. The goal of Chef Co-op is to continue spreading awareness on the importance of eating local!
