Mother's Day 2013 in the Heart of the Finger Lakes

Shrimp and Asparagus Risotto
We love Mother's Day, so much so that we open early at noon to serve dinner all day. It's one of those days at the inn where every table seems to know each other. The asparagus is in season and even the trees have leafed out early just for the occasion.
Our chef has created some special offerings with Mom in mind. Flavorful, healthy and not too heavy: Cream of Asparagus Soup and Shrimp Cocktail for appetizers. Entree offerings are Shrimp and Asparagus Risotto with suggested pairings of Treleaven Chardonnay and Our Hell on Wheels Wit. We're also offering Scallops Solera with the suggested pairings of Goose Watch Pinot Grigio and Our Cayuga Cream Ale. Fresh seafood on a warm sunny day with a drink in hand is the perfect match. Our featured dessert is our chef's sinful dark chocolate chunk cheesecake with fresh strawberries on top, and fresh whipped cream of course.
Our New Spring Menu has plenty of new dishes to try as well www.roguesharbor.com/restaurant
Mom deserves to celebrated. Don't forget this Sunday is her day.
Serving noon till 9. Reservations suggested 533-3535

New Entry at the Inn

Image
We are feeling very pleased with our new (and long overdue) entry. We are honored to know a local master craftsman that resurfaced the concrete steps, repaired the decorative woodwork, repaired the roof, and forged two wrought iron railings. It's very rewarding to repair/replace things on this beautiful building and make them look like they once did with quality design, materials and craftsmanship. It's always a challenge to decide (and budget) what is worth keeping or replicating and what isn't. We usually decide to keep or replicate. We want everything to look as original as possible. We had to have two columns replaced/replicated. We think they look spot on. Maybe we are the only ones that know which are new...and we think the wrought iron railings are much like what would have been in place originally. We should post "before" photos, but it was ugly. We always focus on the positive and progress, so we are only posting the demo, in progress, and the beautiful...

One of Our Winter Projects

Image
Room 9 was just refreshed and redecorated: new beautiful king size brass bed, new cute farmhouse distressed night stands, new table and ladder back chairs (with funky blue and white modern fabric seats), fresh paint all around, new cushy carpet, gorgeous East Lake marble top dresser, and even new room darkening drapes. I do love to refresh guest rooms. To see the finished room and to have guests love it as much as I do is a wonderful feeling. We always have a list of winter (slow season) projects, but this was my favorite this year. It's a hit with guests too :)
