MayTag Bleu Cheese Plate
The MayTag Bleu Cheese plate at The Graceful Ordinary is sweet, subtle, and great to warm winter senses. Chef Chris Curren and the team poach pears in aromatic spices to top with light bleu cave-aged cheese from MayTag’s traditional midwest dairy farm, making each spoonful a succulent bite. Sprinkles of pistachio granola give this dish a dynamic texture and highlight the pitted-fruit flavors with nutty undertones. Enjoy this treat in TGO’s fireplace lounge and soak in the elegant atmosphere for a comforting winter evening beside the roaring fire.
