We love the experience of chef taster menu. All family has to go along my vegan diet. They loved it. The service is beautiful with food description. It is like a little dance in the kitchen. The food is sooo tasty and inspiring. We kicked off the holidays by having this delicious dinner together a few days before Christmas. We did last year and we were delighted to be able to do it again this year. Thank you once again to the wonderful Acorn team.
