Gilchrist's Mac 'n' Cheese Bucatini

Tastemaker
By Anna Faller | Dec. 21, 2024

Does it get any more decadent than a piping hot bowl of cheesy pasta? Gilchrist Farm Winery & Restaurant in Suttons Bay is cranking out Mac ’n’ Cheese Bucatini ($21) just in time for cozy season, and trust us when we say it’s pure pasta perfection in a bowl! This elevated take on everyone’s favorite comfort food starts with homemade bucatini—a thicker spaghetti noodle—which chefs toss in a peppery bechamel sauce spiked with four-year aged cheddar from Boss Mouse Cheese and The Cheese Lady’s Leelanau Raclette. It’s topped off with browned butter breadcrumbs and a touch of brightening lemon zest, and just begs for a glass for Bonnie Bubbly. Holiday food coma: commence! Grab a bowl at Gilchrist Farm Winery & Restaurant at 417 N Saint Joseph St. in Suttons Bay. gilchristfarmwinery.com
