"What the fuck is Top Chef's Jennifer Carroll doing cooking at the South Philadelphia Tap Room?"
If Scott Schroeder wasn't the chef at SPTR (1509 Mifflin St.), he'd have a career in developing press-release intros like the attention-grabbing gem above.
“What the fuck is Top Chef’s Jennifer Carroll doing cooking at the South Philadelphia Tap Room?"
If Scott Schroeder wasn’t the chef at SPTR (1509 Mifflin St.), he’d have a career in developing press-release intros like the attention-grabbing gem above. Today, he dropped word of his upcoming two-part Allagash dinner with former 10 Arts chef Jennifer Carroll and Collegeville's Longview Center for Agriculture, the first part of which takes place at SPTR on Wednesday, Nov. 30 at 7 p.m. Schroeder and Carroll will be taking diners on a culinary drive up 95 with seven courses inspired by New England. Think scallop carpaccio, clam chowder with milk-braised bacon (a la Southwark's Nick Macri), short rib pot roast and more, all paired with Allagash beers. (Full menu after the jump.) The dinner is $80-plus-plus, and reservations can be made starting tomorrow at noon by calling SPTR at 215-271-7787. The second part of this dinner series will be held at the Longview Center; stay tuned for more details.
Allagash Beer Dinner with Guest Chef Jennifer Carroll
1st course: day boat scallop capaccio, shaved celery, cracked pepper, chilled cherry tomato-horseradish infused vodka | white
2nd course: chowder style little neck clams, milk braised country time bacon | little big
3rd course: skate wing, squash puree, brown butter | grand cru
4th course: classic lobster newburg | triple
5th course: meyer’s all natural beef shortrib pot roast, mashed potatoes, root vegetables | black
cheese: cabot cloth bound cheddar, honey crisp apple jam, oat streusel | dubbel
Great to see classic lobster newburg on the menu. Am hoping that like Next's Escoffier menu (Grant Atchaz, Chicago), this foretells a retro-evolutionary trend to the occasional traditional preparation of the 20th (and 19th) century classics.
