GOD, THAT’S TASTY!
The Dish
When that wicker basket passes over your lap at church, you’d better add some dolla-dolla bills, or else you’re goin’ to hell, neighbor. Although the consequences might not be so dire for those that don’t reserve seats at an upcoming holy meal at St. Francis Restaurant in Phoenix, the rewards sound damn close to eternal (and by eternal, we mean tasty) for those that do.
On February 10, two Jesuit Priests from nearby Brophy College Prep and St. Francis Church will bless the restaurant of Chef Aaron Chamberlin, in a traditional “Haustas” ceremony—a custom where family and friends “break bread” together and enjoy each others’ company. It’s actually a perfect theme for this restaurant, which was named after the “St. Francis” neighborhood around it.
So to celebrate, Chef Chamberlin is planning a Farm-to-Table menu in collaboration with local farmer Patrick Duncan—who’s not only a Brophy alum, but grows nearly 200 varieties of certified organic specialty fruit and vegetables on his Litchfield Park tract. The four-courser will cost $60 per person or $90 per person with holy wine pairings (kidding, the wine won’t be holy, but the service will be).
Reservations are required. Please call for menu details.
