Winter Menu 2009

There is so much going on at the restaurant, I almost don't know where to begin. First of all, we would like to thank all who supported the Variety Club fundraiser at Willow Creek Orchards this past weekend. We all had a great time and enjoyed seeing all of you there. We experimented with a new menu item with our vegan Pumpkin Stew and it seemed to be a big hit. We will definitely be putting that on our new menu starting in January. Chef James' home made hot chocolate with homemade marshmallow made its' second annual appearance and again was the star of the show. Thanks again to all!

Speaking of the Winter Menu.......................We have all work tirelessly on the new menu and our first draft has been printed. We are now in the refining stage and we are making subtle adjustments to finish the project. I am really excited about the menu and am sure that you will be too. There is a great mix of Italian, French and Spanish inspired dished that incorporate very seasonal and very local products. Using the freshest seasonal products is so important to us. We continue to use local products from local producers and continue to seek out producers who provide local products to feature in the restaurant.

I know that I promised photos of new menu items a week or so ago. So I have one so far. I will be shooting more this coming week so keep an eye out.

Live and Eat Well
