The Factory Café team is anxiously awaiting the arrival of Asha Gomez for her sold-out Friends of the Café dinner tomorrow night. It’s our last in the 2017 Friends of the Café Southern Foodways Alliance benefit series—but café chef Ray Nichols will be cooking a Fall Supper on October 19^th.

The Factory Café served Golden Potato Croquettes from her James Beard-nominated cookbook, My Two Souths, from August 29^th to September 1^st. We loved the taste of Asha’s Indian-inspired Southern dish.

Asha’s dinner will feature a four-course meal, including dishes like Sunday Vegetable Stew, Kerala fish curry, Beef Biriyani, and Three Spice Carrot Cake, with cocktails, wine pairings and brand new beers from our friends at Blackberry Farm.

Thanks to everyone who joined us this year (and the past 3 years) to support Alabama Chanin, The Factory Café, the SFA, our team, and our community. Look for the 2018 dinner schedule in January.
