The Underground Food Collective is a cooking collective based in Madison, WI. We have a catering company, Underground Catering, an artisan salami business, Underground Meats, and we've just opened our second restaurant Forequarter, located on the near-east side of Madison (we lost our first, the Underground Kitchen, in a fire in June 2011). We cook as a collective, which means we don't have a head chef or owner. Rather, we work together, drawing on our diverse set of experiences, training, and talents to produce food that's better than any one of us could do alone.
