Mentone Opens Indoor Dining; Katherine Stern’s Food Comes to Ser
by Christina Waters
Excerpt:
SER AND STERN
Ser Tasting Room is offering special plates created by the incomparable Katherine Stern, whose new startup Midway has been pleasing crowds recently at various farmers markets. Stern’s open-air cuisine was the perfect midway point between her longtime gig as chef at La Posta and the next chapter in her career. Now she brings her cuisine on Thursdays, in one of those creative collaborations that popped up so brilliantly during the year of lockdown, with Nicole Walsh’s Ser Tasting Room.
Newly opened indoors for tastings, the Ser facility will host such Stern specialties as cheese and olive finger foods, curried red lentil soup, candy cap panna cotta, and various crostati from 3-7pm on Thursdays. Perfect fare to accompany Walsh’s line of ingenious wines—don’t miss her 2020 Dry Orange Muscat!
