Description:

Reservations are strongly recommended, as the twenty two seats in the cozy dining room are in very high demand. The first floor of the lodge – more appropriately described as a B&B - is dedicated to the dining room, with a corner carved out for an open kitchen. The chef proprietor, one Moses “Red” LaFountaine, holds court in the kitchen. From this corner overlooking the room, Red also serves as the evening´s entertainment, greeting customers as they arrive, and continuing the banter throughout the evening offering suggestions to regulars and newcomers alike. Sometimes the suggestion is for a wine pairing, sometimes to suggest that your shirt doesn´t go with your jacket, sometimes that you consider a hair transplant. Think Jacques Pepin channeling Don Rickles. There is no cover for the floor show.
