H Harper Station is furthering their commitment to local, seasonal and sustainable food with the addition of Executive Chef, Evan Cordes. “We have always been focused on sustainable meats and local produce, and with Evan’s natural affinity for those things it’s just getting better and better†states Jerry Slater, Harper’s owner.
Evan Cordes, born and raised in North Carolina, and most recently of Cakes & Ale and Serpas True Food, is excited about crafting menus . “I believe that a delicious meal, crafted from local ingredients should not be out of reach for anyone†states Cordes.
Guests can expect the menu to change more frequently as items come in and out of season. Making a summer debut on the menu is a locally harvested eggplant carpaccio with tomatoes and marinated peppers, a summer bean salad featuring green beans, sunflower sprouts and black cherry tomatoes and a ribeye with smoked potato salad and roasted okra. Cordes and Slater have partnered with local farms like Bes’ Maid Garden Essentials, D & A Farms and Gaia Gardens to ensure a frequent supply of high quality, organically grown local produce.
