Fine World Cuisine in Athens, Ohio
Thanks to our loyal customers, we are finding we are able to hang on during this pandemic. We plan to reopen fully when we feel it is safe to do so. Until then, however, we are sticking with our current business model, which is to offer only pre-ordered, pre-paid meals for contactless pickup on Friday and Saturday evenings. Hilarie and Mark prepare a variety of meals with care and love for you each weekend. We offer local beef and fresh produce in season, naturally-raised Ohio chicken, and fresh sustainable seafood.
The menu changes each weekend, and is published below and on our Facebook page each Wednesday evening. Ordering takes place Thursday from noon until 10 pm, and Friday mornings from 9 am to noon. Pickup is at the REAR of the restaurant at the time you have designated (between 5 and 7 pm.)
We so appreciate your patience and support during this time!
ORDERING INSTRUCTIONS are below this week's offerings.
Here’s the menu for Friday February 26 & Saturday, February 27, 2021
