On January 28, 2012 the greenhouse at Gilbertie’s Herb Gardens will be transformed into a “Pop-Up” restaurant with a chef lineup that will make you drool. CTbites got the list and we are happy to share: Bill Taibe of leFarm, Matt Storch of Match, Tim LaBant of The Schoolhouse at Cannondale, Michel Nischan of Dressing Room, and John Barricelli of Sono Baking Company will provide the dessert course. 

Each chef will prepare four dishes, and the entire menu will be paired with inventive cocktails and wine. This is truly an evening not to be missed. 

Tickets won’t be for sale until January 3rd – except for those who support the market at a “Butcher” level or higher.  For more information contact Lori Cochran-Dougall at 307.690.1759 or director@westportfarmersmarket.comOr stop by the market on Thursday where Lori may slip up and share some more tidbits about what’s planned for the evening.
