A little theatricals for the senses before we kicked off dinner. A concentrated watermelon and basil reduction, with liquid nitrogen created a cooling fog and aroma.

It’s been a busy day here at the Turntable. Tomorrow we have the first progressive dinner and to say I’m excited mighty be an under statement. I’ve pushed myself and my culinary capabilities for this one. Busting out new ideas and culinary applications that I haven’t done before. 16 people will experience a cornucopia of molecular gastronomy and I’m very happy and humbled for those folks to be able to share in this special night with us. Everything but 1 item was sourced locally and or locally grown. Here’s a few sneak peek photos without giving much away. Cheers!

Brionna, Gavin and I have been putting a ridiculous amount of time, thought, and creativity into this dinner, and we’re getting really close to finally putting it in front of you. Familiar ingredients. Unexpected places. No telling you what local food should be. We’re just going to put it on a plate and let you decide.

And somehow, we’re already down to TWO SEATS. So if you’ve been thinking, “That sounds pretty cool…” Now’s the time to do it. Monday, September 28 | 6–9 PM
$265 per person — food + accompanying drinks
Tickets exclusively through Empire Bistro. Stop in or call (419) 448-7733 to grab one of the last two.

Come hungry.

We’ll handle the weird s**t.

Volume I has officially dropped.

Tickets are now available for The LP Dinner: Volume 001 – Local, happening Monday, September 28.

Just 16 guests will spend the evening moving between three downtown Tiffin establishments for a progressive dinner built around one shared theme: What does “local” mean to you?

Expect elevated food, accompanying drinks, a curated soundtrack and an evening designed to let some of Tiffin’s culinary talent show you their answer.

The menu? Still a secret.

Tickets are $265 per person and available exclusively at Empire Bistro. Once all 16 seats are claimed, they’re gone.

Foodies, this is for you. Stop by Empire Bistro or call (419) 448-7733 to claim your seat.

What does “local” taste like? You’ll have to join us to find out.

Tickets go on sale Tuesday, September 8, exclusively at Empire Bistro. Stop in or call (419) 448-7733 to purchase your ticket.
