Next in our menu preview series: Marj’s Tomato Pudding - Jeff’s mom’s classic recipe, reimagined for the JD’s table!

This dish is like the one grandma used to make for the church potluck… just dressed up a little bit 😉 House-made sourdough, farm-fresh tomatoes, and garden basil baked into rich, savory comfort food, and topped with freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano.

Some recipes are just too legendary not to make the menu.

Coming soon to JD’s Stage Bistro!

We’re continuing our Menu Preview series with a dish that balances bold, rich flavor with crisp, fresh texture! 

This is our Crispy Pork Belly.
- Premium pork belly, braised to perfection in an aromatic curry-spiced broth.
- Fried for a satisfying crisp and glazed with a sweet, tangy tamarind reduction.
- Served on a spicy salad of local Michigan produce: shredded kohlrabi, carrot, and apple.
- Topped with roasted peanuts and toasted coconut, for the perfect added crunch.
-  Bonus: This one’s gluten-free, too!
It’s the ultimate blend of richness, heat, and freshness. We can’t wait to serve you.
Stay tuned for more sneak peeks over the next few months as we get closer to our grand opening!
