Dear Feastlings,
With Easter upon us alongside the possibility of a fourth surge, we thought we’d offer our Easter menu as we did last year- cold, with heating instructions, and available to pick up the day before so that you can attend your mass, real, or virtual, and then jump feet first into a celebratory meal. We’ll need a few days to get in all the ingredients and prepare all these dishes, so in order to make sure we’ve got everyone covered, we’re asking (okay, requiring) that you place your Easter orders by the end of the day on Tuesday, March 29. In exchange for your courtesy, we’ll have it ready on Saturday, April 3 to pick up. You can place an order by calling us at 326-9363. What, you ask, is on the menu?
Why, it’s these things:
Easter torte: a wedge of puff pastry torte stuffed with spinach, ricotta, roasted peppers, sun-dried tomatoes and hard-boiled egg. Served with a side salad.
