We have a feeling our local chefs are enjoying the slow season this year. Why? Because this summer there’s been an remarkable number of multi-chef dining events (see, here and here) to enjoy — and to be clear, we’re not complaining.
The latest seven chef/mixologist event to add to your dining calendar is The Great American Veg Out. The one-day dining event is “out to prove that vegetables are sexy,” a noble cause that doesn’t seem so daunting when you check out the list of participating chefs.
