It's a bit of a drive to get there but worth every mile. It's in a small town called Great Barrington. The owner, Adam Zieminski, is a graduate of Johnson and Wales in Rhode Island. Trust me, he does his alma mater proud.
Oh! To read a post on it from last year go here.
Sunday was actually an early celebration of my birthday which just happens to be today! Yippee! It's so great to be alive and I'm so grateful to have made it this far.
We started out our delicious meal with a fruit plate that looked like a piece of art. (Shown in photo at the top of this post). Honestly, it looked almost too good to eat but, somehow, we managed to make every morsel disappear. It came with a strawberry mint sauce. Mmm mmm mmm
I had Eggs Benedict with a piece of salmon, smoked bacon, and asparagus. It was a scrumptuous choice.
My daughter had a kind of blood sausage and eggs with mushrooms and small tomatoes with grilled toast.
The dessert, my portion of which came complete with a birthday candle, was a kind of cream puff shell filled with pistachio ice cream inside and chocolate sauce outside. Strawberry halves provided the little pop of red on the plate. Rarely do I order dessert but I did on Sunday. It was quite fabulous.
That's the kind of meal that suffices for the entire day, with just a nibble for supper.
