The Lake House

The Lake House- Yes I know, I just posted a review less than three weeks ago but was there Sunday evening and another outstanding meal.

Unfortunately,  two of the specials were already "sold out" at 7 :30 on a Sunday evening, which as disappointing, (the fettuccini w/ black truffles & the tile fish)  but no worries- we found other things to order!

To Start,  the wild vegetable salad was quite interesting creamed shitake & cremini mushrooms, triangles of warm toast, an assortment of farm fresh sauteed & raw veggies  all topped w/ a poached quail egg. The wild mushroom risotto w/ baby peas also very good, as was the fresh sweet Corn & Lobster chowder, and the grilled octopus.

Dinner has two meat  selections this particular evening- a skirt steak marinated with a gorgonzola crust and a rib eye  served with a mac & cheese & spinach souffle. The salmon ( a large portion served medium rare)  was served over a chick pea puree, and several other choices of course, all difficult to decide.

Dessert was equally great - we went with the mini chocolate souffle with fresh whipped cream and there was a couple sitting next to us with three desserts,  including the profiteroles filled with mint chip ice cream & dark chocolate sauce, and the rhubarb strawberry tart as they couldn't decide!

Brunch is served on Sundays- reservations required.
