Major score this morning with some wild Wisconsin chanterelles, one of my absolute favorite mushrooms. My first instinct is always to give them a good, long roast to concentrate the flavor. Summer produce is rolling right now, we’re pretty much all local all the time for the next month or so, with the addition of our fresh seafood and indulgences like fresh hearts of palm and Louisiana frog legs. So, here’s what we’re offering up this evening:
