Sofra Series Season 4: Burnt Hill at Albi

A guest-chef Sofra Series dinner

Sofra Series Season 4: Burnt Hill is a collaborative guest-chef dinner and tasting menu event within Albi’s ongoing Sofra Series. The event is tied to Albi in Washington DC and centers on Burnt Hill Farm through both the event name and the named guest chef. Its format is specific: a restaurant-based Sofra Series program with a visiting chef rather than a standalone farm event.

The event page description names Chef Tae Strain of Burnt Hill Farm and notes that the chef was recently named to the New York Times 2026 Restaurant list. That gives the dinner its main subject: a Sofra Series collaboration built around Strain’s connection to Burnt Hill Farm, presented at Albi as part of the restaurant’s guest-chef series.

Chefs and featured places

Tae Strain is identified as the guest chef for Burnt Hill Farm. Burnt Hill Farm is identified as a farm and restaurant in Montgomery County, Maryland, while Albi is identified as the Washington, DC restaurant hosting the event. The pairing is therefore between a named guest chef and project from Maryland and a host restaurant in DC.

Michael Rafidi is identified as the host chef and owner at Albi. The event is also described as hosted at Albi in Washington, DC by Chef Michael Rafidi, which places his role on the host side of the collaboration and keeps the focus on Albi’s Sofra Series rather than a separate Burnt Hill Farm location.
