The Absolute Best Italian Farm-to-Table Fine Dining Experience within 250 miles is found at Dancing Ewe Farm in Granville, New York! And, I’d still be hard-pressed to find something comparable in New York City, Boston or Montreal. Mario Batali take note, Jody Somers is here! We dined al fresco last Saturday night under a sprawling white canopy evoking timeless style that comfortably sheltered guests and their apéritifs from the late afternoon sun. Expansive sheep pastures, cool breeze and distance rolling hills is the perfect backdrop.
The menu changes frequently, but the Tuscan culinary precision and attention to detail never waver. An exquisite perfectly timed four-course meal from one outstanding course to the next; we were served cured-meats and sheep milk cheese to fresh green pea risotto followed by a pork tenderloin that we’re still talking about—desert was fresh homemade vanilla ice cream with perfectly ripened fresh berries. These words cannot compare to the extraordinary experience we had Saturday night. And, the Italian wine selection is second to none!!
Stylish and sophisticated with an upstate rustic elegance Jody delivers refined traditional flavors and recipes that have us coming back again and again. In fact, we dined here three times last year, and more than twenty of our guests have enjoyed this extraordinary experience!
