Poached pear dessert with red sauce, garnished with mint and sliced almonds on decorative plates.

“Breakfast was 5 star! The famous pear was better than anticipated and the fresh farm scrambled eggs with fresh herbs grown on property were so flavorful. The french toast with cinnamon sauce was so good that you wanted to scrape the plate. The amazing breakfast was served on gorgeous china in a charming breakfast room.”
