Maryland Crab, Malt Vinegar, Funnel Cake: Tonight only at Fork

Old City’s Fork is showing off its creativity on Wednesday nights. Every Wednesday, chef de cuisine John Patterson, pastry chef Samantha Kincaid and the entire Fork team are creating special one-night-only menus for $55 per person.

Each week’s menu is guided by a theme or central ingredient; Chef Patterson will change the focus of the menu so that no two meals are ever alike.  Tonight’s menu is being described as “fun shore/picnic kind of dream menu.”

Among the dishes:

asparagus, buttermilk, dill - local asparagus, ketafi dough, house-made buttermilk thickened with yogurt, dill and oil, mix of herbs and flowers
