leFarm Family Meal: Elevated Pub Grub & Beer Pairing
Some meals need no words. The recent "Family Meal" at leFarm was one such event. On the final Tuesday of each month, the restaurant opens up for a single seating and several courses based on the whim of Chef Bill Taibe and his team. This past month featured a down-home family meal based around LeFarm's playful interpretation of pub grub carefully paired with a selection of beers chosen by Saugatuck Grain & Grape. Warning ... the following photos may make you drool on your keyboard.

What I wouldn't give for a time machine, so I could go back to enjoy that meal. It looks amazing!
YES PLEASE
OMG!!!
Those are the best Sloppy Joe's I have ever seen. Is this from Souterain? Or is it a different event?
Beautiful photos!
Good to see high end food finally getting paired with beer in lieu of the standby wine.
BTW, decent beer choices but come on...support the locals! CT does have its own breweries!
Cheers!
I'm stuffed all over again just looking at the photos. The Sloppy Joes were so amazing. We went back the next day for lunch and had them again. It was such a fun Family Meal.
Does that mean it's on for May 31?
