Eventful August in Grand Cayman: Farm-to-Table Dinner & Genuine Cayman Movie Night at Camana Bay

Thomas is stepping up his charcuterie game in Grand Cayman.

Chef Thomas Tennant has been busy on-island (not just making sausages!), and we have two great events coming up that showcase his flair for farm to table, Grand Cayman-style!  For all of our ongoing events, please visit our regularly updated EVENTS page on the blog and look for summer brand intern Victoria Calleja’s great flyers in print at our restaurants (and digitally below!) Cannot wait for September and our beer dinner to launch Michael’s Genuine Home Brew in Cayman.  And then October is all about our executive pastry chef Hedy Goldsmith and the release of her first cookbook, Baking Out Loud. Phew! Stay tuned!!!

#FTT Dinner No. 7 in Grand Cayman

Grand Cayman's convivium is led by Alan Markoff of the Cayman Compass.

In our continuing effort to support local agriculture, promote responsible food sourcing on-island, and wear-in our brand new outdoor furniture, our restaurant in Camana Bay will host its seventh Farm-to-Table dinner with Slow Food Grand Cayman on Saturday, November 12 at 7:00 p.m. This is the last dinner of 2011!  Things are getting busy as our high season and Culinary Month, the Cayman Islands’ annual food celebration, are soon upon us, so I’ll be heading back to @MGFD_GCM with Michael in a couple of weeks to continue planning our roster of events including the island’s inaugural Slow Food Day

As with previous #FTT events, executive chef Thomas Tennant, pastry chef Adriana Duran, and the BOH team will celebrate local ingredients in a family-style, four course dinner for CI $50 per person (CI $45 for Slow Food members) exclusive of gratuity. Patrick Panton of East End Garden & Gifts will be Saturday’s featured farmer, and wine pairings by sommelier Sean Kerby will be offered for an optional supplement of CI $40 per person.  The full menu is available below:
