Dinner Lab 05/26/15
This menu is inspired by a dearly departed restaurant which will forever hold a special place in Chef McGill's heart. June Restaurant's calling card was taking progressive technique and applying it to Midwestern ingredients in a way that accentuates without detracting. This menu is a celebration of those concepts.
