Watch FIG on the Food Network show, "The Best Thing I Ever Ate: Sauces." Our friend and fellow chef Alex Guarnaschelli raves about our Hanger Steak with Agrodulce Sauce...enjoy!
This spring, we spent a day shooting a segment for the Food Network's show, "The Best Thing I Ever Ate." Our friend Alex Guarnaschelli ("Alex's Day Off," Exec. Chef of Butter Restaurant in NYC) gave kudos to FIG for having her favorite steak dish, our Painted Hills Hanger Steak with Hen-of-the-Woods Mushrooms, Salade Verte and Sauce Agrodulce. We spent the day preparing the dish, being interviewed and eating for the camera and we had a blast. A huge thanks to Alex for the shout out! Stay tuned for info on when the show will air on the Food Network. In the meantime, we still have a killer steak entree so come taste for yourself!
We are so excited about a recent project we collaborated on with Southern Foodways Alliance, Hirsch Vineyards, and Whole Foods. This past winter, we visited Hirsch out in Sonoma and working together with John David Harmon of Whole Foods, we custom-blended our very own Pinot Noir wine. The wine, called Southbound Cuvee, is now on sale in all Whole Foods throughout the Southeast, and for every bottle sold, Whole Foods will donate $2 to the SFA, an organization we at FIG are extremely passionate about supporting.
Our local Whole Foods in Mt. Pleasant is stocking Southbound on the shelves now, so join us in support of SFA and have a glass!
