Two fun food events coming up in Ferguson

Enjoy a four-course meal at Hill Brewing's "Beer Dinner" on September 2, with proceeds benefiting Ferguson's community gardens
Good food for a great cause – that’s what you’ll get at Hill Brewing Company on September 2, when the brewpub opens up its Sky Room for a benefit Beer Dinner. For $30, you’ll get a four-course meal and four accompanying beers. And wow, the menu sounds awesome!
Appetizers will be made fresh by guest chef Freddie Holland, my dear friend and neighbor who also happens to be the recipe guru behind Match Meats. Freddie is always whipping up tasty vegetarian delights, and this time he’s using fresh ingredients from the local community garden, so I’m sure his appetizers will be fab!
Up next is salad – fresh spring greens tossed with candied pecans, diced pineapple, fresh strawberries, bacon and blue cheese. Then you’ll get blackened Mahi Mahi with rice and steamed veggies. And finally, dessert is fresh strawberry cheesecake. Mmm!
All proceeds from this dinner benefit Ferguson’s two community gardens – Old Ferguson West and Robert/Superior – and a limited number of tickets are available. To get yours, call Craig at (314) 522-3151 or Heather at (314) 522-3225. You can also find them at Hill Brewing, Cork Wine Bar and Vincenzo’s.
The Beer Dinner is scheduled for Thursday, September 2, from 6:30-9pm. 418 S. Florissant, 63135
Just a few days prior, on August 29, it’s Cork that’s hosting a special event. From 5-6pm, you can taste four great wines (and get a mini wine lesson) for just $5! Immediately afterward, take 20% off any bottle of wine, 1/2 off one glass of wine, or $2.00 off any Hot or Cold Plate from the menu. What a deal!
Cork is located at 423 S. Florissant, 63135. For more info about the upcoming tasting, call (314) 521-WINE.
