All too often, friends of the local food movement are stymied when it comes to the drink menu. Even though our favorite restaurants have incorporated local sourcing into everything from the appetizers to the desserts, it can be difficult to find a local wine, beer, or spirit on the menu.
That's why we were thrilled when Chef David MacLennan of Latitude 41 offered to put together a dinner featuring not one but three local beverage producers: Middle West Spirits, Rockmill Brewery, and Brothers Drake Meadery. Chef David, whose dishes have won rave reviews from local foodies, will pair these producers' vodka, ales, and mead with a menu designed to show off their strengths.
But that's not all! Latitude 41 asked whether $10 of each meal could go to us, your local Slow Food chapter. (We didn't have to think about the answer to that one for very long.) And they've put together a dynamite list of live auction itemsâ€â€a day at Middle West learning to make vodka (and a signed vodka bottle from Brady and Ryan); 4 of Matt's beers from Rockmill, and an extra bottle of Middle West Spirits whiskey-barrel-aged tripel ale (not yet available on the market); a tasting with Matt at his farm, with food made by Chef David; and more... all proceeds to go to Slow Food Columbus.
So make your reservations now and come show your support. It's for a great cause (ok, maybe we're a little biased...) and it will definitely be delicious.
