Last-Minute Lunch Plans

Earlier this week I received an e-mail invitation to sign up for a Northampton Area Chamber of Commerce luncheon which was to be held at The Historic Weaversville Inn & Jessica's Tearoom ...THE NEXT DAY!    

Now, for those of you (especially guys) who would cringe at the thought of stepping foot into a frilly tearoom, you gotta try this one. They do have the frilly, lacey side, but this lunch was held in the dining room off to the right.

The meal was served and you couldn't have asked for better soup, salad with chicken, followed by cookies and brownies for dessert (which were worth every calorie!). When all was said and done, Mark Prostko, Chef and Owner, was introduced to everyone's applause.   

After sampling their lunch fare and viewing their full menu online, I can't wait to return to Jessica's Tearoom with friends and family for dinner. We love to go to BYOB restaurants where we can bring some good local wine to enjoy. I hear their Maryland Crab Cakes are "to die for"... or maybe I'll try the Roast Rack of New Zealand Lamb. What would you pick?

Nancy, do they have a chicken dish too!?

I have yet to get there.

Kendall...you have to check out their menu, http://www.weaversvilleinn.com/menu.html, but I warn you...don't look at it if you're hungry! Mark can even make "plain ole chicken" something special. FYI…If you are going for lunch, each entree lists 3 prices. One for just the entree, one with soup or salad, and one including High Tea. I’ve always enjoyed their puff pastry dishes and would highly recommend them.

Mmmm, I took your advice and checked out the menu. The sandwiches look really good--I think I would love the Turkey and Ham Brioche and the Chicken Salad. Office field trip!?

[Nancy]

Sounds good to me!

Whooohoooo! :)

Actually I've always wanted to go there for a "proper" tea experience. Having done high tea before I know that I will enjoy it but it's definitely a ladies thing. Men think we're nuts!
