BEHIND-THE-SCENES with CHEF JASON STRATTON

Spring Happenings!

Hi all,

It’s been nearly a year since I came back to Spinasse and what a terrific year! A few new things are going on around here. First off, as some of you already know the seating format has changed. The communal tables have transformed into individual tables. So now you’ll see new tables that will give us a few more seats in the room and will allow us to be able to accommodate private reservations of 2 and 4 guests. We’ll still be able to take your large party requests for big group seating. Just say the word!

We are loving the beautiful weather and arrival of first spring delights. As we start getting new things like nettles, morels and new turnips, Carrie and I are constantly working on new ways to make them delicious. One new way to celebrate with a couple friends or your sweetheart is to come sit at the Chef’s Counter on Friday or Saturday night. This is our version of a grand degustazione. Anywhere from 8-11 courses, depending on what we are loving best that evening, we essentially will keep feeding you until you tell us to stop. Some recent favorites have been Tajarin with Zabaglione and Kumamoto Oysters, Fried Mozzarella with Baby Artichoke and Rhubarb, and Roasted Rabbit Loin with Cardoon Flower Honey Sauce and Baby Turnip. Come check it out!

Chef’s Counter
4 available seats (For reservations of 2 or 4 people only)
Friday/Saturday 8:30 pm only
$100 per person + tax & gratuity

Lots of things are in the works for the coming months! Stay tuned for details.

Cheers,

Jason
