Chris Nye - Spoon and Stable - at home chef dinner

Our friends Leona and Bob are kind, generous and involved. They are frequent guests and givers at big charity events and we get the benefit!

Last night they hosted a chef's dinner at their house put on by Chris Nye of Spoon and Stable, only THE best upcoming restaurant in the Twin Cities. It is a Jame Beard nominee and Chris did not disappoint.   Bob bid on it at an Orchestra fundraiser and we were two of the lucky guests

The food was amazing but the company was even better.  Shin Bee and her friend played music, we visited, laughed and compared favorite food movies and stories. I think a monthly dinner club is in order, kicked off with The Big Night and Timpano.  More on that later.

We'll let the photos speak for themselves...

If we spilled on the table cloth we had a sharpie to mark our name, date and the occasion - super great idea to memorialize the dinner

The duck was amazing but the green wheat risotto type thing was out of this world

green tomato curry - crazy good

Fish in a rhubarb sauce, very Minnesotan
