Special This Weekend: Farm-to-Plate Omelette

Jim — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 11:56:18 +0000

This Saturday morning, if you get up early enough, you can witness a harvest parade.

It begins as Chef Heather Haviland makes her way down to the North Union Farmer’s Market. Chef Heather will dance among the booths, gathering vegetables, greens, fresh meat and cheese – greeting the farmers along the way. Then she will begin the trek back to Vine and Bean, laden with the bounty of Ohio’s Harvest. While she is transforming her load into brunch, the farmers will slowly join the march. Each in turn, their stomach will growl and their senses will heighten. Before the morning is through, nature, instinct, hunger and a keen sense of yummy will lead them to the Victorian house where Chef Heather performs her culinary magic.

There's a lot of great stuff at the market.

Even if you miss all that, you can still enjoy Chef Heather’s special brunch items this weekend.

Heather is making a special farm-to-plate omelette this weekend comprised of spicy arugula, goat cheese, and summer squash. A slice of one of Heather’s sweet breads, hash brown potatoes and fresh fruit will complete the plate. Arugula has been gracing plates since Roman times is is perfect for these cooler nights as it is rich in Vitamin C and potassium and has long been considered an aphrodisiac.

We are also still serving our special brunch beverage: Mimosa (Fresh-squeezed OJ plus champagne). What a great combination!
