Come for our Lunch Hour this afternoon as Chef Carrie delivers the freshness of the season with her bright and flavorful Garden Gazpacho, a refreshingly chilled purée soup of tomatoes and fresh vegetables. Pairing spectacle with flavor, the Very Tall Quiche with Zucchini and Greens is towered by a crisp, buttery pastry shell holding layers of tender, caramelized zucchini and delicately sautéed fresh greens, bound by a velvety mixture of local eggs and cream. As the days heat up, nothing satisfies like the cool, crisp sweetness of watermelon. Complete your summer lunch with Watermelon Sorbet with Chocolate Seeds, a light and silky sorbet garnished with chocolatey morsels resembling seeds. Wine will be available for purchase by the glass or bottle.
