Thursday's Thinking of Food (on a Friday)

So, as promised, here is a quick photo re-cap of the oh-so-amazing Harvest Dinner that we enjoyed at City Roots last week:

 Pre-Gaming:

Shaking up an American Harvest Pineapple Basil (or sage--can't remember!) cocktail

American Harvest Organic Spirits

Dinner:

pretty fall tablescape by The Southern Greenie

dinner was in the City Roots greenhouse instead of the field due to cold & rain

me & the hubs

the delicious salad that I blogged about here; my husband's new "favorite salad"

local beef carpaccio with City Roots micro greens by Chef Ryan Whitaker of @116 Espresso & Wine Bar

Butterscotch Oatmeal cookie from Pink Magnolia- I am totally a simple-dessert-kinda-girl, and this was perfect

There was also a wonderful fish dish, created by Chef Steven Blitch of Tombo Grille, (which I sadly have no pictures of), but was awesome.  It was an awesome night-wonderful local food, great wines, we made some new friends, and we will be back. 

Get your tickets to the Harvest Dinner Holiday party on December 12th here. 

Random food news for the day: did you see that Congress protected pizza as a vegetable in school lunch?!  If this pisses you off as much as it does me, please take a moment to let your Congressmen and women  know.

And, finally, Jones and I will be at the Food Truck Rodeo at City Roots this evening--will you?!
