Farm Fresh Food

CULINARY TRAVELERS CRAVING FARM-TO-FORK EXPERIENCES KNOW THAT IN OMAHA THE FARM ISN’T FAR FROM THE TABLE

Omaha’s agricultural prowess plants the city firmly at the forefront of the fresh food movement. Local chefs stand tableside and earnestly give the origins of each and every ingredient used in their dishes – right down to the herbs. At Omaha’s Block 16, die-hard fans line up and out the door daily and show up on social media. Their locally sourced, award-winning burgers are piled high with fresh produce and covered in a secret sauce that makes each bite more delicious than the last. (Locals recommend ordering extra sauce!) It’s not just about the burgers, you gotta try the popular Gangsta Fries, covered in green onions and pork rinds then drizzled with chipotle sauce. An urban fine dining experience can be found at Au Courant Regional Kitchen. The European-influenced menu is ever-changing and promises diners new flavors with every visit. Located below Gather in Omaha, the Gather Urban Farm grows varieties of greens, sweet basil, peppery arugula, and crispy kale utilized throughout the chef driven menu (view the vertical gardens downstairs after your meal). Finicky Frank’s masters the art of fresh comfort food at the foot of the Ponca Hills. Nestled in West Omaha, A Foreign Taste brings seasonal ingredients to the table with a rotating six-course tasting menu.
