Chef Kevin Brown has created a hidden gem in Pickering. It is worth the trip to experience a taste treat out of this world. Every dish is created from scratch using a variety of innovative herbs, sauces and fresh produce. The monthly wine and food pairings evenings are to be envied. A truly great experience in eating.
