Mission
Mission: Provide an open space for friends and family who feel welcome to come and enjoy my 'slow food' dinners, once per month. Bring friends and whatever you can contribute!
Once dinners are closed, they're closed! So sign up when you can.
Stay tuned for updates, dinner dates/times and recipes! Don't hesitate to share your ideas or to request a theme-dinner. I'm always up for a good challenge. :)

Pre-Inaugural Dinners at 1212
Thank you all so much for your contributions for name ideas and welcome to my blog!
You can see which name received the (overwhelming) majority of votes. Second place was DanCanCook and third, to my dismay, was a pun involving the Philly-derived preposition "wit" (see How to order a cheesesteak in Philly for details)
As the blog evolves I'm sure things will change but for right now, here's my mission:
To provide an open space for friends and family who feel welcome to come and enjoy my variant of 'slow-food' dinners, 2 times per month. Bring friends, (but puhleeeeease RSVP at least 3 days in advance with how many and any diet restrictions.) Bring whatever you would like to contribute- it will be a much appreciated offset to my dinner costs.
Note: Once I list a dinner as "closed," you can still come and even bring people, just don't expect food, cuz I didn't plan to feed you!
The BarufFeast pre-inaugural dinners kicked off this past week with a small cohort of tasters who were serendipitously in town.
Below is the menu from the dinner (Friday) and the brunch (Sunday) of this past week with links to where each component comes from, should you be interested.
Dinner:
Honey wheat crostini with homemade basil pesto
Whole wheat spaghetti with homemade turkey-sausage bolognese sauce
Participants: Christopher
Brunch:
Chive, thyme, sage and sundried tomato omelette topped with shredded Cabot sharp cheddar
Repeat of arugula salad listed above
Participants: G and T
Thanks to G and T for the wonderful housewarming ideas and photos that are sure to surprise and excite any future visitors with a creative side... Hint: you can now leave the chef a secret message on the wall!
