Langdon Hall Sunday Brunch
i had the Frozen Lime Souffle, Blackberry & Pear Compote, Almond Tuile

the entire meal was to put simple, scrumptious. Very refined, all the tastes had many layers. individual components on each dish could stand on their own. The agnolotti and pickled grapes stand out in my mind today still, and those were just complimentary elements on the dish. and at $42 per person, prefix 3 course i think it is outstanding for such elegance. Langdon Hall was recently honoured to San Pellegrino's top 100 restaurants in the world, and it has been a 5 diamond establishment for many years already. Chef Jonathan Gushue

the setting is absolutely gorgeous, this country inn really is a boutique hotel, with genuine character and history throughout. before arriving, i was a little worried the hotel was a little too "high brow" for us, but i think because of its seclusion, and the fact that its run by a family, it was very welcoming and relaxing. We didn't stay a night at the hotel but took advantage of all the amenities apon their recommendation.

stay tuned for part two, when we show some pictures of the gardens, greenhouses, and our bike ride through the paths. we even saw wild rhubarb!

woo! long post.
