It’s a throwback Thursday kind of week at Forage as owner Stan Hilbert revisits Domaine Beauthorey, producers of the first natural wine he ever tasted. On Thursday, August 27th, you’ll get to try another bottle from the unassuming vineyard (located in the Coteaux du Languedoc appellation of Pic Saint Loup) that piqued his interest fifteen years ago. For his part, chef Eric Cooper will be creating two five-course menus (one for meat-eaters and one for vegetarians) to be enjoyed at home or on the beauteous new Forage patio. Peruse the menu(s) below and, whenever you’re ready, order your take-out online here ($120 for a meal for two) or make a reservation ($170 per dining duo).
