Maple on the Menu

October 1, 2020

Dine at a Vermont restaurant featuring a maple-inspired menu item! Whether sweet or savory, food or beverage, discover delicious maple dishes this fall as part of Maple 100. Maple 100 is a collaborative fall celebration of all things maple across Vermont.

These restaurants are featuring maple-inspired menu items throughout October. Maple is such a versatile ingredient, that was historically used much more in recipes before the introduction of cane sugar in the United States. Vermont Fresh Network chefs partner with farms and producers of all kinds, including maple sugarmakers. The creativity doesn’t stop at breakfast and baked goods, but our state’s chefs and bartenders incorporate maple into countless savory dishes, sauces, dressings, cocktails, and more.

Chefs Stefano and Sarah will be running a month long special:

As the maple trees change color and turn Vermont’s landscapes into shades of red, orange, and yellow, our minds turn to the many ways we enjoy Vermont’s classic maple syrup.
