Grass-fed steak tartare with a quail egg and organic broccoli sprouts and pastured chicken and organic chaga mushroom soup are just some of the menu options for dogs available during Dogue's Bone Appetit Cafe service. This newly opened restaurant in San Francisco caters to dogs with a variety of snacks, beverages (like Dogguccinos) and bespoke meal plans.
Rahmi Massarweh, the chef and owner behind Dogue, is a chef who specializes in Classical French Cuisine and started making small-batch artisanal food for his dog, a Mastiff named Grizzly. Now, other dog owners who wish to serve their pets custom meal plans based around raw ingredients can find what they're looking for at Dogue. One dish at a time, Dogue is reimagining dog food as the only high-end restaurant designed completely for dogs.
