Its obvious that Chef Damien Brassel strives for perfection. Although you may not believe that the one man kitchen can turn out such utter delights of aroma, taste and presentation.
Each plate is thoughtfully constructed, each ingredient not missing an ounce of attention. His combination of flavors and tasty emulsions are of things you wouldnt think to be: House cured salmon with cauliflower puree; Curry rubbed skate with lobster reduction; Lavender rubbed duck with red onion marmalade and parsnip puree. Words cant properly describe the menu or the level of quality and layering of flavors of the skillfully crafted dishes.
The five course tasting meal is an unbelievable price for food at this level.
Wine list is reasonable. Decor is rustic and pleasant.
Damien and his wife Kristi (who is also the hostess) are very charming and engaging. Before we realized, 5 hours had passed!
Go now before the crowds.
Pros: tasting menu, price, quality
