Three Nights Of James Beard Preview Dinners At Marigold

On July 26, the team from Marigold Kitchen is headed to New York City to cook a dinner at the James Beard House–one of those nights that’s among the highlights of any chef’s career.

But in order to get ready for the big night, the team will also be cooking their way through the entire dinner for three nights in Philly, on July 19th through the 21st, as part of their Test Kitchen Series.

The preview dinner is 5 courses and it’ll run you $65–which is a steal considering that the guys at Marigold aren’t just going to be doing steak and potatoes. No, it’s a guarantee that they’ll be putting together a meal like you’ll never see anywhere else. The chefs will be hanging out between courses to chat and get feedback, and they’re limiting it to 25 guests per night–meaning that if you want in on this one, you’re going to have to get reservations, like, now. Call Marigold at 215-222-3699 to get yours.

And, in the meantime, here’s a look at the menu the guys are going to be serving.
