Ad Hoc Menu Archive

I’m a huge fan of Thomas Keller’s Ad Hoc in Yountville, CA, and got on their email list so I can get the menu sent to me daily. This is a form of torture in many ways because some of the menus sound so incredible that I want to drop everything and start driving to Yountville, even when I know I can’t.

The Ad Hoc Pig

The goal of this archive is twofold. First, it can help people remember the details of a particular meal they had at Ad Hoc. Also, it can also help people get an idea of the types of meals Ad Hoc serves and maybe even whet their appetite a little bit.

Here’s some Ad Hoc food porn to give you a better idea.
