Summer Milestones

July 7th marks 10 years for our café in Branford! This year, we also celebrate 35 years of business since La Cuisine opened on the Guilford Green.  We are so grateful for all the support we’ve gotten from our community and clients – Thank you!

June is one of our favorite months because it means weddings. Congrats to all of our beautiful brides and grooms! We are honored to be part of your special day. Here is a spread from a lovely farm wedding last week.

 

Recipe: Cocoa-Nut Bars
Brendan just finished his second Ironman Triathalon, so we were really inspired by these natural energy bars from Bon Appetit. Give them a try if you are looking to put some spring in your step on busy summer days!

Gourmet to Go
If you are looking for easy and delicious entertaining this summer in your backyard, on your boat, or at the beach, look no further than our Gourmet to Go Menu! We have a full range of yummy appetizers, entrees, and desserts to enable you to entertain with ease.

Local Connections
We wanted to mention one of our favorite local partners: Trout Lily Farm located on picturesque Lake Quonnipaug in North Guilford. Trout Lily grows and sells organic edibles and seasonal cut flowers for the table, weddings, and events.  Michael A. Russo is the owner, “farmer- florist” and creative force behind TLF.   He has transformed the farm since purchasing it in 2003, building terraced stone wall perennial gardens, organically amending the soil, and raising the green post and beam barn that serves as his floral design studio. TLF has a Farm Stand with a unique and charming atmosphere, open by appointment and based on seasonal availability of product.
