As some of you know, I'm the Imbibe half of Feast & Imbibe. I went to culinary school, but quickly switched to the front of the house at Moto and at Tru. My partner, and Feast & Imbibe's chef is D'Andre Carter, Moto's former Executive Sous Chef. We've had many LTH members join us for dinners and I have been an LTH member and a semi regular at the picnic and have been absent from the Evanston Lunch Group for far too long. You can find our thread here:
http://www.lthforum.com/bb/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=36615Feast & Imbibe is an underground dinner club based out of Evanston. We focus on seasonal food that is still fun and approachable and typically offer a 7 course seasonal menu that includes wine pairings. We frequently hold popups around the city though.
Our next popup is this Sunday and promises to be a unique event! We are actually collaboration with Richie Farina (Chef de Cuisine at Moto, Top Chef Season 9 contestant) and Claire Crenshaw (Executive Pastry Chef at Moto, formerly of Tru and Quince).
The even will be one night only at Jam on October 6th. Each chef will be responsible for 2 courses, for a 6 course meal. We have a communal chef's table that will receive 3 courses per chef, for a total of 9.
Tickets are on sale here:
