Farm to Table Dinner by the One and Only James Canter


What: Farm to Table Dinner by Chef James Canter
When: Sept 16, 2011, 7pm
Where: Private McAllen home open to anyone who wishes to join
Cost: $95, proceeds will benefit the Texas Food Revolution

You may have seen Chef James Canter in his youth rocking out backyard grill gatherings like an undiscovered Bobby Flay in the Guerilla Gourmet, an independent cooking show that Canter starred in. See an episode of this classic sleeper by clicking here.
   These days Canter is a little more serious about cooking, but he's still having just as much fun.
   Instead of eating drunken bearded clams on surfboards, Canter now has his culinary sights focused on promoting small-farms of the Texas Valley.
   Last year he opened a Farmers' Market in McAllen inside the Alhambra Restaurant, Bar, and Hookah Lounge, a market that you may have read about in The Monitor newspaper.  You might have read about Canter's farm to table dinners there too, as seen here.
Now everyone has the chance to participate in one of Canter's famed farm to table dinners at an exciting McAllen home. To sign up, stop by The Market at Alhambra this Saturday at 17th & Fresno in McAllen between 10am and 1pm and look for the Texas Food Revolution table. We'll reserve your spot and also offer free samples of food made using ingredients purchased at the market. Or call 956.994.9754 to reserve a spot.
   Proceeds from this dinner will help fund the Texas Food Revolution, a team of volunteer chefs who sample local food to the public.
   Eat local. It's thousands of miles better.

Please forward this message to anyone who loves fresh food.
