Kelly Beef Tasting Dinner Friday, October 17 and Sunday, October 18

It'll be a little bit of trek for diners to get up to Coppa Cafe in Flagstaff, but if this seven course Kelly Beef Tasting Dinner is anywhere near as good as chef Brian Konfal's usual fare then we promise it's going to be worth the drive. The dinner event will feature 100 percent natural, grass-fed beef from Kelly Beef used in dishes such as eye-round with roasted bone marrow consommé and leeks and wild blue sage fusilli pasta with shaved chuck steak and 36-hour braised tendon. You can view the entire menu on the Coppa Cafe website. The dinner, which costs $75 and begins at 7 p.m., will also feature desserts from pastry chef Paola Fioravanti. Space is limited and reservations can be made by calling 480-275-8888.
