The Stir Concierge Program

I made a recent visit to Stir, Barbara Lynch's new cookbook library and demonstration kitchen. If you are serious about cooking, party planning or such, the maybe you would like to avail yourself of a new opportunity from Stir.

"For those interested in experiencing more of Stir, consider a membership. In addition to receiving the quarterly class schedule one week in advance, members are able to enjoy the privilege of borrowing books for research, cooking, or pleasure (over 300 titles on food, wine, travel, spirits!), having a house account at each of The No.9 Group's restaurants, access to the Stir Concierge, and more.

With the Stir Concierge, our team will extend the hospitality we offer beyond the walls of our restaurants and help you with all of your cooking, entertaining, shopping, and traveling questions. Whether you are planning a trip to Paris and want a list of our favorite restaurants, markets, and hotels, are hosting a dinner party and have decided on a menu but aren't sure which cocktails to begin the evening with, or would like a unique gift idea for the gourmand on your list, Stir will help. Recipes, grocery lists, wine tasting notes, restaurant recommendations, menu planning, sourcing exotic spices or high tech cooking equipment... we spend hours researching and consciously editing products from the vast selection available for the restaurants and for each other so that we may provide the very best, whether it's a lesser known wine varietal, farmstead butter, or the perfect dining recommendation for a guest. With the Stir Concierge, all this information, and more, is immediately available to you.
