L'Auberge Provincale

The L'Auberge Provincale is an elegant inn located in White Post Virginia. This lovely place captures the essence of Provence with its golden sun drenched walls, cozy oversized furniture and warm log fireplaces. In the afternoons french treats with warm drinks are served by the fire. Gourmet breakfasts are enjoyed in the morning. The dining is an experience that should not be missed. The prix fixe menu includes choices of Maple Farms Duck Breast, Garlic Coated Filet Mignon, Pan Seared Salmon, Butter Poached Lobster with Truffle Risotto, Grilled Quail with Pomegranate or Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes. Do not skip dessert! Indulge in Warm Apple Tart with Creme Anglaise, Bananas Brulee with Pecan Ice Cream or Gingerbread Souflee with Rum Creme Anglaise and Almond Tuile. There is a small town nearby to browse in, but the inn is so inviting that you may prefer to take a book and chillax (my daughter Ari's word) by the fire for the whole weekend.
