For a single price of between $170 to $250 per person (depending on the night), you can experience a casual 4 1/2 hour culinary prix fix adventure unlike any you’ve had.

After a charming tour of the Herb Farm’s quietly vibrant premises, guests are seated for an unforgettable meal: a nine course parade of exquisite flavors with pairings of expertly chosen and abundant wines. To whet your appetite, you are started off with a glass of nice champagne steeped with your choice of a fresh herb from the garden, such as a chocolate mint. The courses feature an artistic tapestry of locally grown herbs and spices, regional game, fruits and vegetables, all wonderfully woven together with world-wide inspirations. The dishes are small, but they are tastefully tremendous, and they don’t seem to end until you are satisfyingly well fed, and your eyes are a-flutter to the drifting sounds of the live Spanish guitarist, who is deftly plucking away at the Beatles (or whatever classic tunes guests happen to have requested of him).

Lose all of your aversions and predilections. From asparagus to zucchini, guests will marvel at all things served at the Herb Farm with renewed appreciation.

 

Be prepared. upon entering we were invited to tour the wine cellar..an amazing collection! We were offered wine or punch ( no mention there would be an up charge on already an almost $500.00 meal)..toured the gardens tasting fresh herbs..a very promising start.

The chef explained the courses and matched wines with each.So 9 courses I’m concerned about being “overfull” no need to worry..they pour a full glass of wine for each tiny portion..( I’m hungry) food? Here have some more wine…yes..the food is fab..but I’m hungry….have another dinky delicous bit..and some more wine…look if your going to keep pouring me wine could I atleast have the one I like? More up charges.

If you go …DO sit at a group table..they seemed to be having fun. I felt at my little table like I had to sit and be quiet. They are all laughing…can I please have something to eat…4 hours is a long to sit on my ass.

 

tried this again recently, still very good, but for the price, there are far better places to try. The crowd was also very similar to Bis on Main…
