With Farm-to-Table dining series sprouting up everywhere I was excited to hear that Parallel Post in Trumbull has created their own version of this popular way to experience a unique and intimate dining experience: “Farm-to-Trumbull.”
On Wednesday, June 4th at 7pm you can experience a cocktail mixed by Greg Genias (aka “Bootleg Greg”), and a food menu created by James Beard-nominated Chef, Dean James Max, Executive Chef, Chris Molyneux, and Chef de Cuisine, Ali Goss. The dinner for 30 people will consist of a sampling of small bites, a family-style dinner created with the finest local ingredients, and an “all-you-can-indulge dessert bar” for $75 per person (tax and 18% gratuity not included). However, the menu itself will not be revealed until that evening so that the series can uphold a true farm-to-table experience creating a menu inspired by the fresh ingredients available that day.

Some of Parallel Post’s local purveyors usually include seafood from Norm Bloom & Sons in Norwalk, Conn. and Foley Fish in Boston, Mass.; meats from Ox Hollow Farm in Roxbury, Conn.; organic cheeses, milk and ice cream from The Farmer’s Cow in Lebanon, Conn.; and greens from Gilbertie’s Herb Gardens in Westport, Conn so I’m sure you can expect to see some ingredients provided by them on the menu.
