The culinary alchemists at Spruce Hill’s Marigold Kitchen have unveiled their new spring menu, and we have some highlights for you to salivate over before you book your reservation.

Chef-owners Andrew Kochan and Tim Lanza, along with executive chef Keith Krajewski, spent the long, cool spring we’ve had dreaming up beautiful and delicious ways to present the season’s first harvest. The new tasting menu mirrors the day’s meals, starting with egg-centric dishes, then flowing through dinner and dessert as the courses progress.
