Upcoming events at the Oakridge Kitchen
On Saturday, May 1st the ORK will be hosting a Tapas and Wine pairing class.  The ORK is run by our own Kira D and her family.  Check out the information below:

It's going to be a great class with delicious food and wine, and tons of techniques, tips, and tricks that you can use for a party or a weeknight dinner. In addition to making 8 savory tapas and 3 tangy sauces, guest sommelier Sarah will teach the principles of wine pairing that will take your food experiences to the next level. As always with our open kitchen events, you can choose your own adventure–watch, cook, learn, eat, drink, relax–in any combination you wish

Bierkraft goes Paleo!
Yes, it's true. Ben Granger, owner of the raddest beer shop and brand-new SBK member, has added a special Paleo option to his menu of sandwiches, buns and brats.
Ben has devised perhaps the best food item ever: meat wrapped in meat, on a stick. Enter, the Bottle Rocket. These tasty concoctions look like corn dogs, but are made entirely of meat. Each weekend, Ben will be serving up a different Bottle Rocket – a perfect post workout treat.

This weekend's Bottle Rockets are:
Ground lamb rolled in pistachios, wrapped in pickled collard greens and covered in homemade "lambchetta" (panchetta, only with lamb belly)
AND
A pinwheel of chicken sausage, caramelized ramp leaves, black trumpet mushrooms and lamb neck, wrapped in lambchetta

Damn.

Bierkraft is on 5th Avenue between Berkeley and Union
