“After 30 years away, Connoley decided, it was time to return home.”

“I want an experience. I want people to come to dinner and taste every part of the environment.”

“…know your food, be connected with it and be comfortable with it.”

“Connoley’s background is in nonprofit organizations, so he anchored the flavored lip balms and foams with local organic produce, foraged native herbs and pork raised by 4-H kids.”

“The award for most far-flung modernist cuisine.”

“I have never seen a restaurant kitchen quite like this.”

“A culinary oasis.”
