Juneteenth at Christiana Campbell's Tavern

Christiana Campbell’s Tavern Juneteenth Celebration

Celebrate Juneteenth at Christiana Campbell’s Tavern from June 18–20 with a dinner special offered in addition to the regular dinner menu.

Inspired by Hannah Glasse’s 18th-century cookbook, The Art of Cookery, Made Plain and Easy, this dish reflects the culinary world of the British Atlantic, where foodways were shaped by trade, regional ingredients, and the labor and skill of many cooks, including enslaved and free Black people whose contributions were often unrecorded. In recognition of Juneteenth, this special offers an opportunity to reflect on the people and food traditions that helped shape early American cuisine.

Dinner Special | $44

To MAKE Fish on the Grid Iron

Take some slices cut from a fine filet being sure the eyes are bright, if not it is stale…them on a nice clean gridiron. Make a sauce seasoned high with Jamaica pepper and butter, send to table with fennel shred fine…

(Inspired by; The Art of Cookery, Made Plain and Easy, Hannah Glasse, 1765)
