| Surrounded by gardens with statuary, gazebos and fountains, The Manor has been the background for hundreds of special occasion photographs. The interior is designed to match with dark wood paneling and glittering crystal chandeliers. Manners here are formal, which seems an oddity in casual times, but some things never go out of vogue, and haute cuisine is one. Behind the dining rooms’ elegant doors is a village of chefs, cooks and artisans who bake the bread, make the pastries and create the food. Executive chef Mitchell Altholz is a good match. His menu includes classics such as Dover sole with amandine sauce and Long Island duck with leg confit as well as more modern and creative preparations like olive oil poached halibut with cockles, fava beans, and shaved white and green asparagus. The wine cellar is world class so count on finding the proper vintage. Service at every station is practiced. Desserts are as sophisticated as the rest of the menu with such sweets as a chocolate tart filled with salted caramel, roasted peanuts and chocolate ganache---a scoop of house-made banana ice cream accompanies. The lobster buffet available Wednesday through Saturday is legendary. |
