Brown Cafe is a fixture of NYC's hip Lower East Side. We can't remember how we found Brown, but the more we learn about it the more delicious it is. Owner-chef Alejandro Alcocer last joined us in 2005 for an Outstanding farm dinner at Satur Farm on Long Island. This time it will be a short trip over to the East Village and to the La Plaza Cultural community garden. Originally from Mexico, Alejandro has worked at some of the best restaurants around the world -- and he's a surfer, too. Considering the danger and size of his home surf break at Puerto Escondido, this dinner should be a walk in the park.
Outstanding in the Field events feature a leisurely tour of the
hosting farm followed by a five course, farm-style dinner at our long table set in a scenic spot. Dinner is accompanied by a wine paired with each course. Diners are joined at the table by the farmer, food producers, a winemaker and other local artisans associated with the meal.
