Last week we had the honor of being hosted by Burr Vineyards! Katie and Peter make the art of pairing MN ingredients with wine so effortless, like they were made from the same cloth and belong together. If you haven't had a chance to enjoy their wine, sourdough pizza and the rolling country ambiance, it's time. Thank you Burr Vineyards!

The special honor of the evening was having a film crew from PBS with us. The Crowded Table will be featured on an episode of the Almanac sometime in July. We will keep you posted!

If you would like to join us for an event, please check out our schedule at www.thecrowdedtablemn.com There is so much more delicious fun to come!

Our latest news

Hello,

They say it takes 30 days to form a new habit. I think the same is true in regards to major life changes. It’s been 39 days since we handed the keys of our building over to Integrity Title. It’s been surreal. To not get dressed and ready for work felt so unnerving, like we were skipping school or had called in sick. You are home, but it feels wrong. This past weekend I finally felt the shift within. A settling into peace and contentment. Then last Monday we tragically lost our beloved eleven year Old English Sheepdog. It's become surreal once again. We have lost an interictal part of our family. I apologize for the somber message. I share only to inspire you to not take your loved ones for granted, furry or human. We always think we have more time, until we don’t…
