A Farm Table Dinner At UVA
A Farm Table Dinner at the University of Virginia
Local Ingredients Inspire A Collaborative Discussion
On the patio outside of Runk Dining Hall, UVA Dining hosted this year’s first Farm Table Dinner on October 5th. Eleven students, randomly selected for this exclusive event, experienced a meal composed of ingredients cultivated from our local Charlottesville partners.
The menu featured a Goat Cheese Ricotta with Tomato Basil Foam appetizer, a Vegetable Charcuterie Board, Spaghetti Squash Carbonara, Butternut Squash Risotto, and finished with a Red Wine Poached Asian Pear. Besides this beautiful menu, the chefs took the time to talk to the students and learn what they could do to improve the university’s overall dining experience.
A success on all accounts, UVA Dining looks forward to hosting more of these events soon.

Teaming Up with Father Farms to Provide Never-frozen French Fries
Teaming Up with Father Farms to Provide Never-frozen French Fries
Everyone’s heard the phrase “fresh is better than frozen.” At the University of Rochester, we prove it with a new type of french fry. In collaboration with Father Farms, a New York food-tech startup, never-frozen french fries are now on the menu. Prepared at a specific pressure using carbon-dioxide, instead of steam and water, these fries are shelf stable at room temperature, offer a better tasting experience and cook in half the time. Check out the article and video HERE to learn more.
