Today's world continues to focus on shorter and shorter stories and patience. We feel like the story of a dish should take as long as it takes. The Peru menu has begun. We are one week in and absolutely loving the feedback we are getting from all of you. The level of passion we have to keep every dish true to the country, the culture and the story is something that our restaurant feels as a whole. While @kjollerest @mrs.chef_localis ,@chefchrisbarnum and @marcome916 we're completely blown away by the beautiful flavors, interesting and artistic plating as well as the incredible service and aesthetics of the building. No dish has ever been based on someone else's dish before. The inspiration comes from the entirety of the experience. We want to thank @pialeonkjolle for all the inspiration and her obvious love of her culture and food. We've turned our signature dish into an homage to Chef and her incredible staff. We present the dish closed, with a Peruvian ground cherry from @farm to introduce a true Peruvian flavor profile to the Sacramento palette. Lots of farmers in our amazing Sacramento Valley grow these beautiful fruits but they still do not have a large impact on the local dining scene. After that initial taste the dish is opened. The octopus is finished in the wood fire oven and tossed in a tamarind glaze. On the bottom of the plate is a yellow tomato puree with Peruvian ground cherry and fennel seeds in it. We also wood fire roast some cherry tomatoes from @fatherandsonfarm very heavily and toss them in Aleppo pepper oil. We garnish with halved Peruvian ground cherries as well as fennel blossoms and frons from @morchellawildfoods . Last are some micro basil leaves grown by our friend, farmer Chad #eatatlocalis #localis #michelinguide #2starsnextyear #greenstar #octopus #thedishthatmadeus #trustingustofeedyouwell #jamesbeardfoundation #Sacramento #alwaysinspired #dowhatyoulove #lovewhatyoudo #oneteamonedream #peru #traveltoeat #tastingmenu #tomato #fennel #eeeeats #gastroart #gourmetartistry #localfood
