Food
and Family, our back yard chickens
on our back yard barbecue just tasted better. That
was the deciding factor. Good quality food over
wood was simply better. We knew we had the
theme to our restaurant, it would smell like a late
night campfire. Man has been curing, preserving
and cooking with wood fire for over thousands of
years, and somehow we have stepped away from it.
This would be our resurgence back to that primal
flavor we institutionally hunger for.
Fire is the essence. It is alive, like a
restaurant should be, continually changing and
developing. It burns with the fuel it is fed and
the attention it is given. We strive for that
change and growth. Whether it is the menu
changing with the season or changing beer taps
for the next new inspiration.
Craft
is a pastime or a professional that
requires particular skills and knowledge of
skilled work. Our Craft is in the food, working
the fire, using our palate and experience to create
the next dish. Designing the menus and drink
lists with specific thought and consideration.
Creating an atmosphere for others to share in the
work of other craftsmen and craftswomen. With
each experience, menu and inspiration our craft
will change and evolve, leaving an expression of
who we are.
