The Daily Dish: June 27, 2016
Today's first course?
An Atlanta brewery says that more than 78,000 bottles of beer were stolen last week. According to the company, the thieves made off with two loaded refrigerated trailers in the pre-dawn darkness. Police later found both trailers using GPS, but they had already been emptied. Further searching uncovered roughly a quarter of the stolen goods in a suburban warehouse, but even despite this recovery, the loss still stings.
Swedish store IKEA says that it has created a food truck for its oh-so-good meatballs. The truck will feature in Chicago in late July and at the Celebrate Brooklyn festival in August, while making additional surprise stops in Chicago and New York. There is no word yet on whether the food truck will be decorated with flat-pack IKEA products.
Alain Ducasse — world-famous chef of three three-Michelin-starred restaurants — will soon be able to add one more impressive feat to his culinary resume: opening a restaurant at the Palace of Versailles in France. Originally, he had slated the restaurant – named Ore – to open in April, but the date has since been pushed back to September. Ore will be open to the public during the day and will become "an exclusive dining experience" at night for private events. The public portion of the restaurant will operate like a traditional French café with classic cuisine "alongside light and quick snacks, desserts and gourmet pastries."
