Community Dinner McHenry Co

Happy Thanksgiving! The wait was over for one of our lovely customers. What a beautiful table and we are thrilled that we could be a part of your celebration! As today goes on, we are excited to see more of your feasts!

Wishing everyone peace and plenty this holiday season. Your support of the first Community Dinner lifted our spirits!

And that’s a wrap! The last Thanksgiving feast has been carefully ‘stuffed’ as cargo curbside.

Wishing everyone peace and plenty this Holiday season.

Typically the eve before Thanksgiving has restaurants and bars full of patrons. Today looked different. We are grateful for the social distanced interactions with customers curbside and for their patronage.

This first Community Meal has been a positive source during a very trying time. It’s a honor to cook for people, and although celebrating apart this year, together breaking bread in spirit!

With a pour from Crystal Lake Brewing and a beautiful bouquet from Twisted Stem Floral.

Rounds out to be a pretty complete package!

The last meal was sold this morning. It’s fantastic news, and the icing on the cake is the purchaser is donating it to a local family in need!

There is a so much strain, pain, concern and frustration to these unprecedented times, and yet kindness and generosity shines through!

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who purchased, followers of this page and those who shared this collaborative culinary experience.

Stay-tuned for future offerings. Also be on the look out for an inquiry form for other local businesses who want to partner!
