Executive chefs Marc Jacksina, Alyssa Gorelick and Blake Hartwick -- of siblings Halcyon, Fern and Something Classic, respectively -- will travel to the James Beard House in New York to put together a five-course "Taste of Charlotte" dinner June 28. Each will prepare a dish of his/her own, and the trio will collaborate on two dishes. Also on tap: wine pairings, plus a moonshine cocktail from Halcyon mixologist Maggie Ruppert. Details (menu, price, etc., since it's open to the public as well as members) to come, but there is talk of possibly using a whole (local) pig ...
Also coming up from this restaurant group:
Fern hosts a Mother Earth Brewing beer dinner March 19 for $45. Among the courses will be creamy polenta in French onion broth with chanterelles and Sisters of the Moon; and sweet potato and rosemary croquettes with braised mustard greens, with Dark Cloud. Reservations: 704-377-1825; 1323 Central Ave.
And Halcyon hosts "Grapes Down South" with Brooks Winery and winemaker Chris Williams on March 29. Look for oysters with buttermilk foam and mustard caviar, with Willamette Riesling; "Marc's Picnic Fried Chicken" with Japanese potato salad and Janus Pinot Noir, and more. $70; reservations: 704-910-0865; 500 S. Tryon St.

Do us proud y'all!
The Grindhouse at Boswell's Sandwich Construction Company in Stallings is outstanding. It's a southern take on the old french dip sandwich with a fantastic sauce inside, YUM!
I think the Reuben sandwiches at Mueller's are the best.... Good bread, excellent meat, taste sourkrout and plenty of cheeze to make it nice and gooy......
