NE and Chef Marko Ellinger take over Casa de Luz

Chef Marko making magic with fresh fennel at Casa de Luz.

On the second Sunday of every month, five students from the Natural Epicurean Academy of Arts prepare dinner for the patrons of Casa de Luz. This month we have a special treat in the form of Chef Marko Ellinger. He will be leading the kitchen and creating delicious dishes in Casa's kitchen.

March's Menu is:
Butternut Bisque
Sprouted Quesadillas with Blue Corn Tortillas
Polenta Cakes with Millet and Garnet Yams
Minted Cucumber Cups on Field Greens
Braised Dinosaur Kale with Pickled Purple Cabbage and Cherry Umeboshi Splash

As always we strive for as much seasonal, organic produce as possible. Although our menus are planned in regard to the seasons, sometimes the produce just isn't available and substitutions are required.
