Max Chef to Farm Dinner "Ode to Tomatoes"

Celebrating 15 years of MAX CHEF TO FARM!

LOCAL | SUSTAINABLE | CONNECTICUT GROWN

We start with the Farmers. They tell us what is at peak perfection each day and we build our menus around that day’s harvest. Our Chef to Farm dinner series is an opportunity for our guests to enjoy the freshest foods and produce in the sublime beauty of our celebrated farms. 

Your evening begins with a reception then you’ll head out for a tour of the farm to see the fields and learn about the farm’s history, operations, and products. Your tour concludes in the tented area where tables dressed in linen and candlelight offer a view of the alfresco kitchen. Each dinner is cooked from scratch and showcases that day’s best produce. The ingredients are sourced daily from local farmers, ranchers, and fishermen.

Our menus vary and are dependent on the day's harvest and the inspiration of the Chef. Prepare yourself for an incredible dining experience with the most local, fresh, and flavorful foods available.

no pit, no husk, no leaves or thorns, the tomato offers its gift of fiery color and cool completeness

Neruda's "Ode to Tomatoes" says it best. What can be better than vine-ripe tomatoes fresh from the farm? Only this: Savoy Pizzeria and Max a Mia come together and join forces to celebrate the height of Tomato Season. For this event, we'll enjoy a tasting menu that revels in all things tomato. Our mobile pizza oven, the Savoy Road Show, will be on the farm, as we wax poetic about the perfect summer food: The Tomato. Live music (TBA).
