Say "Tomato" with us and Kurlbaum's farm!

It's once again time for the annual WE SAY TOMATO beer dinner, featuring heirloom tomatoes from Kurlbaum's Farm! Last year's dinner was great fun, and this year adds a cool twist of pairing the delicious tomatoes with beers all from local breweries, including some newer releases - Tallgrass's Wild Plum Farmhouse and Boulevard's Pop-Up Session IPA, along with McCoy's Cerveza and Sticke Alt, Gordon Biersch's Hefeweizen, and Long Strange Tripel from Boulevard.


A few of the tomato varieties are the same as some from last year (Juanne Flame, Gold Medal, and Brandy Wine) but used in different manners. And I was a fan of the dessert tomato last time around, so I'm looking forward to see how it turns out this year.

The dinner is at 7 pm on Monday, August 5th. Call us today at 816-389-4180 for reservations! It's $55 for six courses paired with the beers, tax and gratuity included. Don't miss out on a great chance to learn a little about some historic tomatoes, and to see how delicious the heirlooms can be!
