On my own, I treated myself to Dinner at The Silo Cookhouse at The Horse Shoe Farm.
There might be more free range chickens than the last time I was there? Had to edge one of the cluckers out of a parking space. By the time I left, three of them were roosting on the porch railing (see pictures). Pretty cute, actually.
Bananas Foster Cheesecake: dark rum caramen, brown butter milk crumb, and coconut tuile. Delicious! Nice to have less than massive dessert portions.
Ambiance is similar to that of a mountain lodge: seating, fabrics, art, decore, and an active stone fireplace. I particularly like the bar stools. Lots of character and comfy.
I sat at the bar, sipping an Old Fashioned, while I looked through the menu. That’s a real candle. I was happily surprised it was real instead of battery operated.
Fireplace flanked by pieces of art.
By the time I left, the chickens had settled to roost on the entrance railing. Pretty cute!
Their menu isn’t extensive, but most people should be able to find something they’ll like. I’d call Silo Cookhouse nice-casual fine dining. Cost, especially for Main courses, leans toward fine dining pricing. Creativity and care is apparent in everything that comes out of the kitchen.
