Farm to Chef Week at Locals 8 Restaurants

Celebrate the glory of "Farm to Chef" Week with Locals 8 Restaurant Group

September. Beautiful September.

Although the month signals the end of summer, it's a glorious month for so very many reasons. Back to school, new routines, change of season, and most importantly, the beautiful and bountiful end of season farm fresh harvests. 

Of course, the Locals 8 Restaurant Group decided this was the BEST time of year for a FULL FARM FEAST, and each of the Locals 8 Restaurant Group's chefs have tailored a locally driven, farm fresh menu to suit any palate - or budget. That's right! These menus have been created to feature the very best that farm fresh and LOCAL has to offer!

From September 16th to September 22nd 2018,  all Locals 8 Restaurant Group locations are celebrating with a delicious farm fresh feast!

Links to each of the Farm to Chef menus for ALL the Locals 8 locations, b Restaurants, Tisane, Butchers & Bakers, and the Half Door, are found below.

At Plan b Restaurants, in Milford, Glastonbury, Hartford, Fairfield, Simsbury, Stamford, and West Hartford CT, the menu highlights include Pickled Tomato and Watermelon Stack, Eggplant Rollatini, Sausage Orecchiette Pasta, and Apple Pie Bread Pudding! Plan b is where I'll be going this week to sample all those and some specialty drinks too!
