I assume you know that Chef Matthew Kirkley left in November to focus on the Bocuse d’Or competition for the USA team. The new Chef, Erik Anderson, hasn’t introduced his new menu quite yet, as far as I know. The menu through December was a highlight menu from owner and former chef Daniel Patterson (still 2*). We enjoyed that highlight menu tremendously in mid-Dec and thought it worthy of 3*, but it isn’t the true 3* menu and culinary exploration that won the 3*.
