Heirloom LA, the catering company and food truck, will be serving a four-course menu with a flight of five wines for $20 at Silverlake Wine on Sunday afternoon.

Chefs Matthew Poley and Tara Maxey have just returned from Hudson Ranch vineyard and farm in Napa, where they picked up a 40-pound Berk-Hampshire pig for the occasion, as well as plenty of vegetables, olive oil and wine to be paired with their dishes.
