As the year continues to wind down, it’s time to look forward to celebration. It’s been a great year —full of challenges and new directions as well as special moments and traditions with family and friends. Let the farmer’s daughter restaurant at Normandy Farm provide the respite you need to toast the successes of this year and plot a plan of action for 2017.
Toast with those you love at a four-course tastefully presented and eloquently executed menu by award-winning executive chef Mtele “Abu” Abubakar and his team. You’ll be wowed by the inspired farm-to-table feast that is prepared especially for you and your guests.
1. The Ambience
The history and charm of Normandy Farm evoke a nostalgic era when farmers worked their gardens and fields, prepared their own food and baked rustic breads and classic desserts while gathering those closest to them around a table full of laughter and love.
The tranquil, inviting and candlelit surroundings of the farmer’s daughter restaurant serve as the premier backdrop for your special celebration.
2. The Cheese
Begin your culinary experience with an artisan charcuterie and cheese board full of the most popular local and imported soft and hard cheeses. Hand-crafted accompaniments include deviled eggs, assorted jams, pickled figs and Normandy Farm’s signature grilled sourdough.
3. Beginnings
Crisp seasonal salads and hearty warm soups serve to introduce the main courses of your spectacular meal. Cream of parsnip soup and endive and apple salad are just a few choices presented.
4. Intermezzo
Normandy Farm’s housemade crimson-colored blood orange sorbet will provide perfect palatable pleasure as your dinner unfolds.
5. The Star of the Show
The faces of your guests are sure to light up as well-presented entrees like broiled lobster tail, pan-seared black sea base, rack of lamb and the classic chateaubriand, to name a few, are served with perfectly paired sauces and sides.
6. Finish with Flair
We guarantee you’ll have room for executive pastry chef Sam Nahhas’ extraordinary desserts that have to be seen to be believed (and tasted). It might be difficult to tear into these Instagrammable works of art (trust us, it’s worth it) with the likes of Your Last 5 Sins collection of decadent flavors, white chocolate creme brulee—and new this year—Captain Morgan Nuts Pie. Enjoy!
Seatings for this unforgettable meal are available from 5–10 p.m. and begin at $79 per person. Reservations are required.
7. The Party
Once dinner is done, hold onto your hat, grab some party favors, put on your dancin’ shoes and get ready to make some noise! A select DJ will be bringing down the house from 10 p.m.–2 a.m. Kiss your resolutions goodbye as you let loose and count down with a complimentary champagne toast to the best year yet!
