Whether it’s a holiday market or a breakfast pop-up, there are plenty of tasty events taking place this weekend. If you’re still hungry, extend the weekend with two fried chicken feasts at Farmhaus and Grace Meat & Three.
1. Farmhaus Blue Plate Special Dinner
Early fans of Farmhaus, get ready: the Lindenwood Park restaurant is bringing back its popular blue plate special next week – only this time, for Monday supper. On Monday, diners can order the prix fixe menu, which includes a starter salad, entree and dessert. This week kicks off with blue plate favorite – chef Kevin Willmann’s fried chicken.

2. Family-Style Fried Chicken Dinner
Chef-owner Rick Lewis and his Grace Meat & Three crew whip up a family-style feast to benefit neighbor City Greens Market. The main event (fried chicken of course) is served with sides including a roasted beet salad, cornbread, deviled eggs, greens and grilled carrots. Local farms like Double Star Farms and Buttonwood Farms supply the ingredients. Proceeds support the market’s mission of providing equal access to quality food. Tickets available online.
