Fresh vegetables are my favorite foods. I could eat them all day long. Spring is my favorite gardening time because fresh vegetables are so abundant.

This year is particularly great. Our team is planting peppers, tomatoes, Swiss chard, onions now. Romaine,broccoli, arugula, fennel, and spinach are still being harvested. You can see the Vintage House vegetable garden as you enter the restaurant. Sometimes you can see a member of our culinary team actually harvesting the Veggie du Jour.

Sophia Marie helped us plant.

She stayed with us for the weekend while Paul M. and Karen were in Houston doing Messina Hof tastings and celebrating their 6th anniversary. She and ” Baba” planted a garden and named it Sophia’s garden.

Join us at the Vintage House for great vineyard cuisine and fresh from the garden vegetables. By the way, Bluebonnets and Indian Paintbrushes are in full bloom. The Wisteria trees are gorgeous right now!

Cheers!
