From our friends at Macon Bistro & Larder...
Macon Bistro & Larder, the French and Southern-inspired bistro in Chevy Chase, located at 5520 Connecticut Ave., NW, 20015, will debut its first Artisan Dinner Series on Wednesday, July 29th at 6:30 PM featuring local artisans creating handcrafted goods which will be incorporated into seasonal farm-fresh dishes created by Executive Chef Dan Singhofen, Chef de Cuisine Jenna Pool, and Pastry Chef Jameela Hassan. This first dinner of the series will showcase Daniel Liberson and Lindera Farms Vinegars. Lindera Farms is not your average vinegar. Daniel Liberson creates artisan vinegars with sustainable ingredients sourced from Virginia that are of the highest quality. They are extremely versatile and can be used as a finishing vinegar, for seasoning, in vinaigrettes, gastriques, cocktails, shrubs, or as a drinking vinegar, made with chefs, bartenders, home cooks, and health conscious individuals in mind. Guests will have the pleasure in enjoying an artisanal five-course meal utilizing some of Linder Farm's unique small batch vinegars. Dinner is priced at $65 per person, tax and gratuity not included, and there is an optional beverage pairing which is priced at $35 per person. Beverages will also be available a la carte. Guests can anticipate unique pairings including 2012 Etienne Dupont "Cidre Bouche"; 2014 Domaine Labbe "Abymes" Jacquere; 2013 Domaine Vincent Sauvestre Savigny-les-Beaune 1er Cru; 2012 Mas des Dames "La Dame" Grenache Blend, and the 2003 Domaine Jo Pithon Quarts de Chaume.
