Special guest will be Marcy Masumoto, reading between courses from her
recent cookbook and from her husband, David "Mas" Masumotos' writings!
This is a first in the history of our underground restaurant series to
have a reader. We usually feature world renowned musicians and this will
be the first in a new part of our underground dining experiences,
featuring readers in between courses.
For many years, we have
presented a menu featuring the Sun Crest heirloom peach grown by one of
California's farming treasures, the Masumoto Family Farm. This organic
farm has been producing some of the finest heirloom varieties peaches
or 4 generations! The Masumoto farm is an extraordinary piece of living
history of Japanese American culinary and farming expertise. Every peach
coming from the farm is a work of art!
