Mountain Dining

I'm dreaming of a dinner table set with a mix and match jumble of Sologne and Rambouillet from Gien. I see antique etched wine glasses, and thick heavy linens embroidered with pheasant feathers. I'm serving up some Silver Palatte beef stroganoff and chocolate fondue for dessert. After all, it's winter in the mountains, we've all been skiing all day and we're ready for a hearty meal, a wonderful wine and some good friends to share it with. Does it go without saying that we'll be lighting a huge roaring fire in the fireplace?

Set a Mountain Table

Don't you just love sitting down to eat fabulous food at a beautiful table? Here are some dishes that will make dining in the mountains into a special occasion.

Spode Woodland (Bear Dinner Plate)

Everybody seems to love bears themes in the mountains. So often bear "decor" turns into resin bear ornaments and crazy life-size chain saw carved bear statues. This is a classy way to bring bear motifs into your mountain home.
