I can’t think of a more appropriate post then my dining experience at Blue Hill at Stone Barns.  November is the month of “Thanksgiving” and I am thank full to have tasted the agricultural feast that executive Chef Dan Barber and his staff prepared for myself and 5 friends.  When entering Stone Barns, the rebuilt barn structures are architecturally beautiful and set the scene perfectly. Luxury farming and agriculture was evident throughout our evening experience.
 

  

This was indeed a very special treat from the inspiring simplicity of the menu to the well maintained vegetable gardens of the farm.  The above photo shows the home grown vegetables and how each vegetable is cleaned, lightly salted and presented for tasting.

Blue Hill at Stone Barns has no menu, instead the kitchen creates a feast that is catered to your palate and is dictated by the farmers on the premises, only using the food that is grown on the farm from the days harvest. The food presentation was wonderful and we had a tasting of 8 small dishes each delicately prepared and delicious!   





Even the menu was well designed and served as an inspiration to my interiors.  It is such a gift when design intervention occurs.

As a designer this was an extraordinary experience for everyones 5 senses and I strongly recommend going.  Please visit the website below to learn more about Blue Hill at Stone Barns and the wonderful day visits.  It’s worth the trip!

Blue Hill at Stone Barns is located in Pocantico Hills, NY about 1 hour from NYC.
