Description
Join us for a celebration of the essence of summer, featuring a pescatarian midsummer produce focused 5-course tasting.
Here's what the chef shared about this tasting:
This holler tasting menu is pescatarian focused, celebrating local midsummer produce provided by nearby farms and gardening co-ops as well as freshly sourced fish and crustaceans. We're still leaning pretty heavy into our exploration of koji, and for this dinner we'll be bringing koji into a variety of Southern contexts by using barley koji and heirloom corn kojis grown for us by local fungi master, the @fungiist to produce koji cultured butter, koji cultured buttermilk, and powdered koji fry dredge. We have been having an absolutely amazing time experimenting with this ancient fungus that has historically provided so much depth of flavor to dishes from Southeastern to far Eastern Asia, and we're very excited to share it with yall. As far as produce we'll be playing with some of our favorite local midsummer veggies like corn, tomato, eggplant, okra, and watermelon.
There are two seating options available: 5:30 - 7:30p | 8:00 - 10:00p
Cost includes 5 course tasting + gratuity
Cocktail + Alcohol pairing available for purchase at the event
What is holler, you ask? It is the next step in our commitment to presenting modern Memphis cuisine to you. To us, that means celebrating the flavors and culture of the people that live in our great city of Memphis. It is our goal to incorporate ingredients and influences from the cuisines of the immigrant communities that make the Mid-south such a vibrant and unique region, through a thoughtfully crafted and unforgettable food experience.
