So, this menu just sauntered into my inbox today, from my friends at Main Course California. I used to work with them and they know I can't get enough of delicious food and decadent menus- so they sent it to the right person! Chef Rachel Main just finalized all the delicious details for their upcoming Outstanding in the Field dinner, so here's a sneak peek. In case you're still on the fence about going, or if you're one of those wondering if its worth the expense, start reading! They had me at carrot pancakes... what's going to make your mouth water?Outstanding in the Field
