![]() Fearrington House Restaurant Restaurant Review: The porch at Fearrington House offers a striking view of the rolling hills and meadows of a former dairy farm. Today, a beautifully designed housing development and village center, anchored by an elegant country inn, resides next to the restaurant. Chef Colin Bedford’s suitably posh fare is offered prix-fixe or à la carte. Depending on the season and the chef’s inspiration, options may include celeriac and truffle panna cotta with roasted root vegetables, smoked sweetbreads with potato purée and Calvados mustard, seared foie gras and poached torchon with maple bacon sauce, or a poached pear salad with blue cheese custard. Main dishes range from hibiscus-marinated venison with girolles, port and red currant sauce to roasted scallops with blood orange butter sauce. Among elaborate sweets, you’ll find such fantasies as pumpkin cheesecake with pumpkin seed praline and burnt butter sorbet, but no one touches Fearrington House’s signature dessert, the hot chocolate soufflé with chocolate sauce, on the menu for 30 years to honor Edna Lewis, the chef from 1983-84. The artful food is complemented by a notable wine cellar, overseen by the inn’s sommelier Max Kast. Fearrington House boasts one of the area’s most polished waitstaffs. Wine dinners, offered several times a year, are special treats. |
