In celebration of the Moore Square Farmers Markets’ fourth season, and to raise awareness about its mission to bring the highest quality local growers and food artisans together in downtown Raleigh, select restaurants will feature a “Green Plate Special” in their restaurants the last Wednesday of each month this season. Each “Green Plate Special” will highlight farm-fresh ingredients from the Moore Square Farmers Market. The “Green Plate Special” will serve as a reminder throughout the season about the outstanding local fare at this boutique market in the heart of downtown Raleigh.

On Wednesday, July 29, Jibarra will offer the following prix fixe dinner for $35 per person:

First Course: Farm-grown heirloom tomatoes salad, NC honey-sweetened chorizo oil, a fruity basil habanero salsa and rehydrated lime-infused fresco cheese.

Bite-Size Trio: Pan-blazed NC shrimp with an awakening beet puree; smoked queen corn esquites with Anejo Cheese and Pasilla Chile; garlic Littlenecks in a spicy coconut milk broth.

Entrée: Deep-fried, masa-encrusted soft-shell crab, with fresh vegetables, yellow tomato emulsion, tomatillo salsa and avocado marinated in extra virgin olive oil. (Soft-shell crab is a seasonal item that may not be available. The substitution for the soft-shell would be a Vermillion Snapper presented in the same manner.)
