The Inn at Pound Ridge

This warm and inviting Victorian-style inn exemplifies country charm. After a glimpse of the valet line and attractive white clapboard façade, it’s quite obvious that this restaurant is for a pedigreed crowd. Manicured gardens complete the picture.
The mien may be rustic, but the menu conceived by Chef de Cuisine Eric Brach is utterly contemporary. It features a veritable hit list of Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s greatest dishes, albeit in tweaked formats. The classic tuna ribbons from the chef's eponymous Manhattan outpost inspires this kitchen's tuna tartare with avocado, ginger-soy sauce, and chili oil. Crisp, pan-roasted salmon is then set in a fragrant corn-lime broth. Finish with carrot cake with cream cheese frosting.
