Farm-to-Table Dinner

Manresa was just named one of the Top 10 Most Dedicated Farm-to-Table Restaurants by Epicurious.com, the website for Gourmet and Bon Appétit magazines. Journalist Joanna Camas wrote,
"Thinking globally and sourcing locally is not just politically correct; it's also personally rewarding for the farmer. Cynthia Sandberg, the owner of Love Apple Farm, near Santa Cruz, California, supplies the fruit and vegetables for Los Gatos's Manresa restaurant. 'It's a very special feeling to see something on a plate prepared by a world-famous chef and be able to recognize the exact vegetable that I picked for him earlier that day,' she says."
Join David Kinch for the Spring Garden Modernista Dinner on Wednesday, May 28 for an eight-course dinner inspired by Manresa's local biodynamic garden. Open seating begins at 5:30 p.m., $155 per person, exclusive of wine, tax, and gratuity. Two sommelier-selected wine pairings will be available. Please call 408.354.4330 or visit OpenTable for reservations. Please note that the menu is non-vegetarian. The outdoor dining patio will be open for the Spring Garden Modernista Dinner.
