Park Avenue Club
2023 Dec 03
I attended a Chamber of Commerce event here this past week.
The building was beautiful. Part of the building was originally a turn of the century daily barn and part is contemporary. The old and new blend together seamlessly.
I was particularly taken by the dining club in the old section. They retained some of the original wood beams creating a unique and charming environment. They used the grain silo to create small intimate dining rooms on each floor that can be rented out to members.
The next thing that impressed me was the food. I have been to many business events and my food experiences have run the gamut, but this was probably the best I have had at an event. The first course was an arugula salad. It was presented beautifully and tasted incredibly fresh. The entree was a duet or braised short ribs, glazed salmon, mashed potatoes, and vegetables. Fairly standard event fair, but the flavors just sung.
The participant seated next to me was a vegan, and after letting the staff know she received a plate of food that I was envious of. There were a couple of purees, quinoa and an entree that looked amazing. Definitely not a weak fill in plate.
The staff were pleasant, but tried to stay unintrusive.
Overall, this is a great venue start to finish!
Stopped off with my daughter just after lunch. they are still pretty much delivery or takeout. Dine in is is sitting at their table with takeout food.
We just had rolls and they were good. Little variations from usual. The peanut avocado roll with sweeten peanuts was unique and very tasty. The amazing roll is a spicy tuna & avocado roll wrapped in thin slices mango and topped with tobiko. The mango added a sweet fresh note which I really enjoyed, but kept sliding off. I would order both again
The service was fast and efficient, but not overly friendly.
Next time I will go with takeout.
Very nice course. You definitely want a cart because this is very spread out with a lot of elevation changes. Also playing here for the first time I thought it was odd that the tees weren't numbered. The patio at the clubhouse is on the second floor and has a beautiful view of the 18th hole.
I have to absolutely agree with a few of the reviewers. Great trails for hiking and biking, but watch out for the rocks particularly on blue. I've clipped my rear derailleur on rocks twice, and had my pedals catch rocks often. Marty's Reliable Bikes is right on route 10 and is good for gearing up and repairs. The trails can be accessed dron behind the shop.
There is also little beach on the lake with very few amenities.
