Chef/Owner Wally Joe(THE LEGEND) and Chef de Cuisine Andrew Adams (both James Beard 2025 nominees for Best Chef) opened their doors at Acre Restaurant for the November dinner of The Memphis Wine & Food Society. A wine dinner at Acre is always well received and generates a large turnout. Dinner Chairmen Jim Vogel and Mike Harris provided broad guidance and the culinary team delivered an exquisite menu. While all the dishes were wonderful, the Sable Fish in Brioche received widespread acclaim among members and quests. Additionally, the wines pulled from the society's cellar were a focal point and the pairings were an integral part of the dinner. The beef spinalis (the outer edge of the ribeye) was a spectacular course with the celebrated 2000 Bordeaux (Gruard Larose). The creativity of Wally and Andrew was on full display, which created a memorable evening for the society.
