We were thrilled to have two new chefs creating this Ayurvedic dinner for us - Ruth Smiley and Arthur Anderson. Ruth is a local private chef and Ayurvedic practitioner incorporating 18 years of practice in the healing art of nutrition, seasonal health, and longevity. She companion cooked the meal with craft baker and rotisseur Arthur. With dedication to deliciously balanced courses, this farm to table feast blended digestive herbs like fennel, lemon balm, ginger, and cumin to give a subtle and distinctly Ayurvedic touch. This meal had a California seasonally fresh menu of strawberries, old-world roses, soup, salad, summer squashes and blossoms, bread, sprouted nuts, greens, and local pork from Wondernut Farm. It was a super yummy experience. We even had some amazing music provided by local musician Alec La Roche. What a night!
