Restaurant: Patowmack Farm (Again)

We ventured back to Patowmack Farms this past week. We'd been there once before, in February of '06, for my birthday. Our findings this time around were fairly similar to those from before in that results were mixed, but mostly good. I won't write the same things over again, just touch on a few of the key points. It was nice to get out to somewhere different but as I said before, it's a once a year sorta place.

• The broccoli bisque was great and probably the best course.
• The antelope was cooked perfectly and they didn't even ask.
• The chicken roulade was a bit dry but everthing else on the plate made up for it.
• There are two homemade breads, an amouse and an after-dinner treat not on the menu. It's expensive but you get a lot of food.
• I didn't find the wine pairings particularly successful this time around.
• Dinner took 2.5 hours again and their chairs aren't designed for it.
• The atmosphere and location continues to be the "talking point" of the restuarant.
