Manda's B&B Specials

Here we go with another great evening shared in our kitchen with Chef Manda from the Blue Heron B&B.

Tonights menu starts off with Asparagus with Lemon Oil, Cashews and Tarragon. Now is when you begin to find some of the freshest produce in our local markets.


A little lemon zest to flavor the asparagus.

Into the quick boil....

and onto the plate...

...topped with cashew slices. This is a meal unto itself!

Apparently the vapors from this dish can also be used as a one-minute facial before consumption! Or maybe it's worth that extra inhale before eating!

There were a lot of smiling faces this evening!

Onto the Classic French Bistro Frisee Salad.

Here is the start of the Gourmet Mac 'n Cheese with Gruyere Riesling Cream.




Look at how beautifully this presents! And it tastes even better. Move over Kraft - Mac and Cheese will never be the same!



Chef Manda with the Portobello Mushroom topping.



The final combination was Grilled Shrimp on a Portobello Gratinee.

The presentation again was spectacular, and the flavors even better!

Look for other offerings by Chef Manda in our summer schedule. They are filling up quickly!
