Thursday Obsession: Hen of the Wood Restaurant


No not the mushrooms, but a restaurant in VT that has received rave reviews. Eric Warnstedt (Executive Chef and Owner) opened HEN OF THE WOOD in October 2005. 


It was an opportunity for him to open a place that combines a warm inviting atmosphere, in an historic setting, with seamless service and outstanding wine. 


The menus are based on the local ingredients found only miles from the restaurant in the lush Green Mountains and Champlain Valley of Vermont.









Care to join me on a road trip to the Green Mountain State?

  1. This is my kind of restuarant! It really isn't going out for dinner, but out for an experience. I love it when people are passionate about the meals they create, whether it be a chef or a homeowner!
