The French Garden is a palace for all the senses. As you enter, flowers, trees, fine woodwork, leather, linen, glass, tile and stone set the stage for the culinary delights to come. Your meal starts with an amuse of the day, a tasty surprise chosen by Chef Stephane Roy to wake up your palate. Next comes fresh bread hot from the pastry kitchen and served with butter made each day from local organic cream. Wines from France and California are selected by the chef for pairing with your meal and served in elegant glasses. The emphasis on freshness continues as your appetizers arrive and salads are served with lettuce picked that morning. French beans just off the farm are crisp and flavorful and tomatoes that were on the vine the same day are rich and sweet. It’s only 7 minutes from the 30 acre farm that Dan Smith and Joan Marler have owned for over 20 years and it shows in all of the dishes that are graced by their carefully selected fruits and vegetables.
