Malabar Farm Restaurant

Situated in the heart of rural Ohio, surrounded by agriculture and livestock, it was a natural evolution for the Malabar to start developing menus and a culinary perspective based around seasonal produce. Every year our dedication gives way to a closer relationship with local growers, taking baby steps toward our main goal of being completely reliant on Ohio produce. We strongly believe that food is most flavorful when it comes from our back yard, and since we are in the business of making tasty food, it only makes sense to encourage and support rural Ohio. In line with this philosophy, we try to keep our food simple and our flavors clean—a tomato should taste like a tomato. Starting in February of 2012 we will be taking even greater strides toward these goals, developing menus for each season. This is new territory for the Malabar in some sense but is familiar as well. We hope that you will support us in our efforts to bring back the seemingly forgotten concept of simple, quality food.
