This was the very first menu that we served at Keyah Grande. We had literally just arrived from Maine and were not open yet; construction on the road and parking lot had yet to be finished, and a CO was still months away. It was the first meal that we cooked for Peter Stanley, the GM at that time, and a “getting to know you” experience for us all. Happily, almost three years later, looking back on this menu, I can honestly say that I wouldn’t change a thing.
