We live out of state, travel frequently, and have been fortunate to dine at some of the finest restaurants in the U.S. and abroad, Michelin-starred included. I’m especially fortunate to have a family lake house only 30 minutes from this extraordinary gem, which quite frankly competes with—and exceeds—the finest restaurants anywhere. That said…OMGD! I had the best-prepared, freshest swordfish of my life tonight—served with beautiful, garden-fresh garnishes. And yes…in Sullivan County - well away from the coast! We also sampled the tuna crudo and East Coast oysters. You’d swear they’d just been pulled from the water. Everything was that fresh and insanely good. The roasted poularde was perfectly cooked, juicy, beautifully seasoned, and locally sourced—from the same farm that supplies Thomas Keller’s restaurants, Per Se and The French Laundry. I’ve dined at both, and Black Walnut wins! Dessert? The panna cotta is the finest I’ve ever had. My longtime favorite (until tonight) is in a three-generation family restaurant in Valeggio sul Mincio, Italy. …And the pavlova here is well…indescribable—it will simply stop you in your tracks. Think this was a one-off lucky night? Think again! We dined here last month and last summer with somewhat different menus, and food, experience and service each sitting hit all the same highest bars! Camille’s secret is she’s personally in the kitchen cooking every night, with her sous-chef by her side. Her small open kitchen is in the same room serving only max 40 lucky guests. Try finding that degree of experience, passion and continuity in such an intimate setting. Compare that to our typical world of corporately owned franchises, rotating chefs, and far larger capacity restaurants. So…forget the Hamptons. Black Walnut is a joy…make Calicoon your next destination. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
