Over the course of the last 12 years, Cory Weeds’ Cellar Jazz Club has not only established itself as the finest jazz clubs in Vancouver, but as one of the best in the World, having been named one of Downbeat Magazine’s “Top 100 Jazz Clubs in the World” six times.
This Friday, September 28th, Two Chefs and a Table will help the club celebrate it’s 12th Anniversary by launching a new food partnership with the Cellar. The menu of share plates and entrees they have created for the Cellar balances seasonal favourites with healthy dose of flavours of the Bayou and South where Jazz originated over a century ago.
“When Cory approached us about the possibility of a partnership, the potential was evident immediately,” said Karl Gregg of Two Chefs and a Table. “Cory’s willingness to build a menu that drew upon the Southern heritage of Jazz was very exciting for us as was the chance to share our food with a whole new audience.”
The menu developed specifically for the Cellar combines Southern classics like Shrimp n’Grits, Creole Meatballs and Fried Chicken alongside favourites like the Big Lou’s Burger, charcuterie and cheese selections and local mussels. And while the menu is rooted in the deep South, Two Chefs and a Table makes the dishes from scratch using fresh local ingredients.
“I’m really excited by this partnership” said Cory Weeds. “I was looking for ways I could evolve my business and improve the product, while having more time to spend on the other things I love to do—like my own music. I looked at potential food service partners and Two Chefs and a Table seemed like exactly the right fit.”
The new menu will be launched on Friday, September 28th as part of the club’s 12 Year Anniversary Celebration featuring the Jerry Weldon/PJ Perry Quartet. The menu will be available 7 nights a week afterwards.
Cory Weeds’ Cellar Jazz is located at 3611 West Broadway and on the web at www.cellarjazz.com. Two Chefs and a Table can be found in Railtown at 305 Alexander St. and on the web at www.twochefsandatable.com.
