Christian and his wife are really the Salt of the Earth: Very loving people who are wide open to new perspectives and great conversation. I appreciate having the joy of spending time with them this past week and getting some loving support from them (though we never finished our Bruce Springsteen discussion! :)).I look forward to paying them another visit and hosting the next round! :)

We were there for dinner. The staff was attentive and friendly. The dishes were consistently well prepared and tasty, as well as attractively presented. The meat was cooked perfectly in each case, unfortunately the potatoes in the potato gratin were a little too soft and sometimes mushy. I just hope this was a one-time oversight. Otherwise we really liked it. The menu was varied without being too comprehensive. Vegetarians were also considered.
