Profile

The Old Guard House Inn, still vigorous after more than two decades, remains the epitome of tradition-minded fine dining. In a log-walled room reminiscent of a chalet hideaway, Continental classics like Dover sole and roast duck are treated with respect, not as clichés. Owner Albert Breuers honors his German roots by including sauerbraten and Wiener schnitzel, but he may have scandalized locals when he first dared to serve his excellent lump crabcake with a Thai red curry sauce.
