Hunting and Gathering


Join me and Sommelier Jeff Solomon as we introduce you to the areas finest local food featured in our 100 mile dinner. All of the food and wine served will be from within 100 Miles of Hannah's Off the Square, even down to the table salt.

Two dinners will be served, the first on Monday April 18th and then again on Thursday April 21st. $95 per person with guests arriving at 6:30 with Banquet Table Service that will be served Family Style. Reservations are strongly recommended as space is limited. Our regular dinner menu will be available for guests not participating in the 100 Mile Dinner.

The hunting and gathering began this morning, with orders placed at Juha Ranch for leg of lamb, oxtails, ham shanks, ground lamb, ground beef, pork belly etc. Dallas Honey Guild is supplying us with lots of local honey and honey soaked pecans. The eggs, herbs and Spring greens have been coming in for weeks now. A crate of green Spring onions from Lemley of course and a variety of cheeses from Full Quiver Farms. It was a good first gathering of items, with more coming throughout the week.
 
 Menu items are beginning to shape up! We are thinking about house-made lamb and feta sausage with sauteed local greens and garlic. Green onion, lemongrass and oxtail soup or maybe a Bollito Misto. Cardo's Spinach salad with bacon roasted onions, shiitake mushrooms and pecans with Sherry vinegar. Sounds good to me! See you in a couple of weeks!~ Chef
