Just before we left on our holiday week off, I did a little more work for the latest issue of Valley Homes and Style.
Our first destination was the Yellow Brick Bank and head chef Karl. One of their creations is a collapsed chocolate souffle. This one was adorned with fresh whipped cream, raspberries (which are out of season) and some mints to dress up the vision. Karl spent some time with us to explain why seasonal foods are so important to a good menu in his restaurant. As someone who both enjoys cooking and enjoys eating, I was fascinated.
Here’s his creation.
Then we visited a house in Martinsburg. The owners there have spent a lot of time renovating this old treasure, and showed us around for quite awhile. He wanted to show us everything, but we ran short on time. I took this gem in their beautiful front room. Email me if you’d like to see some more images from this house, or just check the latest issue of Valley Homes and Style.
