    Great experience! And it is an experience. It's how food should be eaten imo...savoring each unique bite. They estimate 2.5-3 hours and time flew by. Beautiful setting in or out. The service was fantastic, staff was knowledgable about the dishes, the history of the farmhouse and the farm. We were offered a tour of the kitchen and I could've watched the chefs all night - it's like watching an artist. I've had Quiescence on my list to visit for several years and I am so glad we were finally able to make it happen. I for sure want to visit Morning Glory next for breakfast.
