Every day we strive to serve world class dishes. On top of our regular menu items, we bring you specials which reflect daily changes – the weather, breeding seasons, growing seasons and harvests all impact our kitchen every day, presenting our chefs with challenges and opportunites! We love to share that with you, our guests, in our Daily Specials. For Scarecrow, great food isn’t just about the ingredients; it’s about where it comes from, who makes it, how it makes it way to the plate, and finally, how it’s enjoyed.
