The Refectory Restaurant is one of Columbus’s most iconic fine-dining destinations, known for French-inspired cuisine, an exceptional wine program and a setting featuring a restored 19th-century church building.
Inside, you'll see soaring wooden beams, candlelit dining rooms and stained-glass accents that create an old-world atmosphere.
I enjoyed the chef's four-course Alsace tasting menu, which first included a gift from the chef.
The terrine was a surprise because my first course was also a terrine. Two terrines in one meal is possibly two too many.
But then, I received the bread basket, which was one type of bread, but at least it was warm.
Now, onto our official tasting menu.
Sockeye Salmon and Smoked Salmon Terrine horseradish vinaigrette, caviar blend blinis. It included creme fraiche, salmon roe, caviar, tomato fricasse and microgreens.
Wild Mushroom Lasagna brandy sauce, tomato fondue
Prime Pork Loin and Duck Sausage Duet mustard velvet sauce
Alsatian Cheese Cake blueberry coulis, almond joconde, griottines
A jelly, a chocolate and a creme brulee finished the meal.
