Nov. 13: Go Off The Menu with Marissa Guggiana at Mémé

This Sunday, Nov. 13, David Katz's Mémé (2201 Spruce St.) hosts Marissa Guggiana, the Cali-based butchers' advocate and food writer (and editor of Meal Ticket fave Meatpaper) who's just released Off The Menu: Staff Meals From America's Top Restaurants. The book highlights the tradition of the simple meal that restaurant employees sit down and share pre-service; Guggiana features spots from around the country, highlighting Katz (plus Marc Vetri and Jose Garces) here in Philly. Expect family-style portions of meatloaf with macaroni, egg, reggiano and black pepper (from the book); spinach/potato/gruyere frittata; potato gnocchi with lamb neck ragu; Canuck-style pork pie with prunes; and Katz's dessert "secret weapon," jelly doughnut bread pudding with coffee cream. Seats are $55, which includes a signed copy of Off The Menu but excludes tax, grat and booze (though they will be selling $20 bottles of wine); 215-735-4900 for tables.
