Celebrated chef Jefferson Alvarez will be cooking a special Greasy Spoon dinner at Save On Meats on Monday, September 14th. If you’re unfamiliar with the concept, the Greasy Spoon Supper Series invites BC’s best chefs to plate four courses of old school diner fare in their own way in support of A Better Life Foundation. This is the 7th dinner of its kind, with past toques including the talented likes of Joel Watanabe (Bao Bei, Kissa Tanto), Angus An (Maenam, Fat Mao, Longtail Kitchen), Ned Bell (Yew in the Four Seasons), and Scott Jaeger (The Pear Tree). Jefferson appears to be taking a Latin turn with his menu, which reads all kinds of awesome. Behold the delicious details below…
