Bacon Festival

BACON is art that is celebrated with the richness of distinct flavors from different animals and breeds. Morgan's in the desert Bacon Festival starts with Duroc Pork bacon to explore the broad, rich personalities of truly heirloom bred, artisan produced bacon framed by a twisted classic Baby Frisee Salad.

You have never tasted bacon until you try Morgan's cured Wagyu Beef bacon, slow braised to reach crazy tenderness, married to smokey Fingerling Potatoes.

Save room for perhaps the best combination of sweet and savory with Dark Chocolate and the heralded Mangalitsa Bacon Tart.

Everything is better with BACON!

$45 per person, exclusive of tax and gratuity. Wine pairing available for $15 per person plus tax and gratuity, for two glasses of wine.

Ampelos is Chef Jimmy Schmidt's favorite vineyard in the Santa Rita Hills area. As the vineyards have grown and matured, each sequential vintage continues to artistically intensify. Ampelos employs a low-intervention winemaking process, which means no added yeast, no artificial tannins, no artificial malolactic bacteria, and no added color. Every sip evokes cool ocean breezes and sunny afternoons wandering in the beauty of the rolling Santa Rita Hills.

Ampelos produces refined wines with rich deep fruit and incredible balance, perfect for creatively pairing with food. For the Bacon Festival, Chef Schmidt has selected the Ampelos Viognier to pair with a Crispy Duroc Pork Bacon Lardon & Baby Frisee Salad. Join us to explore for yourself how, in tandem, each elevates the other.
