Charcutie At Toasted Oak

February 8th, 2012

Throw away those lunchables, it’s time for some REAL meat. Toasted Oak’s charcuterie features Chef’s specialties as well as traditional treats of the world; both prepared using age old techniques handed down through years of perfect production. In front of your eyes you can see bacon-wrapped country terrine, slowly braised pork roulette; house hickory-smoked mustard seed packed hunters sausage all from our house pantry! We finish it with classic mountainside air dried Prosciutto Di Parma as well as a rich and spicy Chorizo from Spain.

At the Grill and Market we make our own marmalades and mustards and we will pickle whatever vegetable we can fit in a jar, which means YES you can take them home.

See. You. Soon.

Brasserie In The ‘Burbs

February 7th, 2012

The fertile minds at Sage Restaurant Group aren’t afraid to take creative risks. That’s why each of the eight restaurants it operates across the country seems so unique, even though all perform the identical function: be the default breakfast-lunch-dinner option for the hotel to which it is attached. Their latest stunner: Toasted Oak Grill & Market in Novi, MI.

Sage doesn’t do stuffy, big-ticket hotel restaurants, period. And it won’t settle for operating one of those deadly, zero personality eateries found in so many hotels nationwide. Instead, the Denver-based company puts a wildly imaginative spin on each project’s food and design. “Our mission is to create a memorable culinary occasion complete with a locally infused vibe,” says Sage c.o.o. Peter Karpinski. “We have achieved that by uniting local talent with high-quality local products.”
