Menu:

A four-course autumnal séance, where each dish is a whisper from beyond.

Course I: Whispering Woods Salad Autumn Salad with Farm Greens, brioche croutons, toasted pepitas, pomegranate seeds, and crumbled goat cheese—dressed in a maple-dijon vinaigrette as soft and sweet as fading memory.

Paired with Prosecco

Course II: Echoes of the Hunt Venison Carpaccio Thin slices of venison, Pickled blackberries, fried capers crackle like distant footsteps, and balsamic with smoked salt evokes the scent of damp earth and forgotten paths.

Paired with Spirit of the Night: Empress Gin, Cointreau, Tonic, Squeeze of Lime

Course III: The Silence Beneath Wine-Lacquered Short Rib Braised short rib, rich and spectral, glazed in wine as dark as midnight. Celeriac purée as pale as moonlight, with olive and rye crumble—like soil from a long-abandoned grave—and a whisper of black truffle.

Paired with Vampires Kiss: Vodka, Chambord, Cranberry Juice, Lemon Juice, Grenadine

Course IV: Sweet Remembrance Maple Pecan Tart with Bourbon Whipped Cream A warm tart of maple and pecan, its sweetness lingering like a fond farewell. Crowned with bourbon whipped cream—soft, smoky, and touched by the spirit of autumn.
