| The Restaurant at Patowmack Farm isn’t the kind of place that beckons drop-ins or drive-bys. Indeed, you need a reservation, and you also need to work hard to find the place. Up a steep, gravely hill, the Farm is far from just about any place, so once you are there, be set to enjoy the view---overlooking the river and distant farmland---and the food. Alas, despite a fine chef, graceful service with each person’s personalized menu, and fine ingredients, the brunch is overpriced and under-portioned. One may find on tap: two appetizers, one a spring mix of local lettuces; four main dishes, including an egg Benedict (why not two eggs?); braised pork belly; and the chef’s version of salade niçoise using Japanese nairagi, a tuna-like fish. A minute portion of the Impossible Chocolate Cake seals the deal. In the evening, look for leg of lamb, pork with chickpea stew, poached halibut, and grilled lubina (Spanish sea bass). |
