Other Infomation

Hi Tom,
Well, as you know, my name is Henry Lebard, and thank you for the invitation to make a proposal on your request. I would be delighted to prepare a relaxing, fun, and celebratory birthday dinner for the three of you. I have proposed a menu based on your requests and have made sure not to include seafood. One of my favorite things to make are steaks because I get to make my ground rosemary seasoning, and even better I can serve it with the crowd-favorite mushrooms! Plus, in the salad I'll be excited to include a few of my home-grown microgreens, as well as nasturtium flowers. :)

Regarding calling you, unfortunately this website deletes numbers from all messages and correspondence until we have confirmed our meal, so that chefs and clients do not "go off" the website (Table at Home would risk losing their commission). Otherwise I would be more than happy to discuss the meal with you.

Please let me know the size of filet mignon you would like, Tom, so I can ask the butcher to cut off portions. I would suggest anything from the six to nine ounce range.

I would be very happy to hear from you regarding any requests, questions, or ideas you have. If you like, send me a reply by hitting the message button below! :)

I've done my best to illustrate some of the dishes you've requested based on how or where I will source the ingredients, as well previous dishes I have prepared.

Very best wishes,
Henry Lebard
