Chef’s Table is a collection of chef-inspired local dishes using the bounty of just-picked fresh produce. We partnered with Chef Thomas Rice to create dishes using peak-season produce from local farms.

These dishes are deliciously fresh and are ready to cook or ready to eat. Each dish comes with preparation instructions.

Chef Thomas Rice of Tete Charcuterie fame and a graduate of Culinary Institute of America uses the bounty of just-picked produce from local farms such as Mick Klüg Farms, Sheeringa Farms, Garwood Orchards, and Chicago Botanic Garden’s Windy City Harvest.

“As chefs we start with fresh vegetables to inspire the main dish where as most people think of the opposite” - Chef Thomas

Next month we will have another chef who will also create several seasonal dishes using ingredients from local farms.
