Although as I write these words the weather is overcast as per usual for a San Francisco morning in June, summer is most definitely right around the corner. A walk around last week’s farmers market revealed early summer treats with hints as to what’s to come. Small piles of summer squash, field-grown tomatoes, corn, and early season peaches and nectarines were there to greet me. Indeed, at the Tory Farm stand I experienced the first dribble of peach nectar down my chin as I bit into one of their gorgeous, perfect ripe Ivory Duchess peaches.

We’re celebrating the beginning of Summer with our annual switch-out from our weekly offering of sweet potato fries to polenta fries. Those sweet potatoes will be back when Autumn rolls back around, but for now creamy polenta with a crunchy exterior will take their place (soon we’ll add in fresh corn kernels for little pops of sweetness). Try them with next week’s Achiote-Rubbed Chicken Breast- paired with Cherry Tomato Salsa and Kale with Toasted Pepitas & Queso Fresco, you’ve got an early summer dinner to make everyone happy. This the first appearance of cherry tomatoes on our menu this year and we couldn’t be more excited. Other newbies? Zucchini (in our fresh-baked Zucchini Bread) and cucumbers (pickled and tossed into our Orzo Pasta Salad).

Read on for the rest of our menu featuring the best the season has to offer!
