Supper Club Series
Hal & Mal's is getting ready to kick off the first of their new dinner and a show supper club series with "Forks & Fiddles," a laid-back seven-course dinner to celebrate the Spring, with great conversation, cocktails, and wine pairings featuring vegetables from Flora-based Two Dog Farms. No dinner at Hal & Mal's is complete without live music. BTJ Trio - a bluegrass-inspired group featuring Temperance Babcock-Steiskal, Bill Ellison, and Jeff Perkins - will provide the backdrop for the evening.
