We had been looking for a local farm-to-table experience when we found Campo di Bella. Our first…read morevisit was a Saturday evening which consisted of a five course meal. Everything about the evening was exceptional. The first course was bruschetta, followed by a refreshing fresh salad with lemon dressing. The main course was flank steak, cooked perfectly. This was followed by a cheese board with delectable cheese samples from local dairies. For dessert, they had an absolutely amazing home made vanilla ice cream. It was rich, creamy, and very tasty. We enjoyed it so much, that we immediately reserved a second dinner which had cider braised pork shoulder as the entree. Again, the meal was exceptional. It started with prosciutto wrapped cantaloupe. I've never had prosciutto sliced so thinly, it was tender and flavorful. This was followed by a butternut squash soup that was thick and rich. I didn't know butternut squash could be so flavorful. I cleaned my bowl so thoroughly that the host jokingly asked if they forgot to serve me. The pork was next. Served with honey crisp apples. It was tender and perfectly juicy. Again, a cheese board was served before dessert. All very tasty local cheeses. For dessert, a French apple tart. I could have eaten a whole tray, it was so good. I've now been there over 20 times. Every time has been exceptional. They offer a variety of wines, ciders, and local beer to go with your meal. They also make their own vermouth which is sweet, with a hint of clove. It's so good, in fact, that we like it on the rocks. Not mixed. The host, Mary Ann, is wonderful. She takes time before each course to provide background on the home grown or locally sourced ingredients. She also gives a history of the farm and her family and, if the season permits, offers a tour of their farm. Marc (Mary Ann's Husband) is the chef. He is a culinary wizard. As I mentioned, I've been back over 20 times, which equates to almost 80 different dishes. All of them amazing! My only criticism (it's a minor one) is that the room is small and cozy and it can get a bit loud inside. It depends on the crowd, but it can be a bit hard to carry a conversation. In summary: exceptional food and exceptional people. I could not recommend it more. Update (12/13/24): We've been coming back to Campo di Bella for the last 5 years. At least 60 times or more and we've never been disappointed. Marc and Mary Ann are incredible hosts that continue to create amazing meals and experiences.

The texture of the gnocchi was so very pleasing - little pillows of goodness. The main course of polenta, mushrooms and house-made italian sausage with polenta was hearty and wonderful. As always, the cheese course was very tasty with several lical cheeses I had never before tried. (I look forward to having them again at home . Dessert was divine! I am not usually a fan of chocolate, but this was delicious! At this restaurant, they use local ingredients as much as they can, too. Give Campo a try if you haven't already. You are in for a real treat!

Sjölinds is a "Scandinavian Style" bakery / coffee shop / chocolate shop. It has a very…read moreScandinavian feel to it, without being specifically of one certain country. Their savory pastries are really great. I like the "Finnish pie," which is a pastry crust with some hearty, nicely seasoned pork and onions inside. They have a few different kinds. They have the best coffee in Mount Horeb, and also the best Swedish meatballs. The atmosphere is very homey. You can sit there all morning and meet new people. It's kind of an artistic center in Mount Horeb. At least one local novelist has written whole books there. Highly recommend.

I have family in Mount Horeb, so we visit once or twice a year. Sjolinds was recommended to us by…read moreour neighbor in our Colorado mountain community who is also from Mt Horeb. It was an excellent recommendation. We ordered a variety of items from the cases. The cherry cobbler was especially memorable, but everything was good. We've decided to make a visit to Sjolinds for breakfast/brunch on our way out of town a part of future Mt Horeb visits.

I stopped counting at 12. Customers walking around without masks. I attempted to speak to the store manager who came out with his nose hanging out of his mask, and he just shrugged and walked back into his office. If he had shown some concern I might not be writing this but the whole place is a walking advertisement for ignorance. I used to like this store but I won't be returning.

My husband and I stopped in at Telsaan for lunch and tea while in the area for a long weekend trip…read more I make a point of stopping in tea shops whenever I'm visiting a new town that has one. But I was also very intrigued by the tartine and couscous options on the menu. We ordered a couple of the specialty drinks - I got the toasted marshmallow tea and my husband go the chai coffee. We ordered two of the tartines and split a couscous entree. All of the above was delightful, fresh and well-portioned. Though I will add that the toasted marshmallow tea drink really does have a toasted, campfire flavor to it. So prepare to be transported in that respect. The owner helped us and kept a tab open for us, as I knew we would be leaving with at least some loose leaf tea. She also instructed us as how things in the shop work: there are large tins of loose leaf tea lining the walls of the space and small samples to smell each of teas. We settled on an almond oolong and a mint green tea to add to our home collection. We've brewed the almond oolong since and it is delightful. Not to mention, the prices were very reasonable - with a discount the more you buy! Oh and a helpful tip - they only accept debit or credit, no cash or check! The space is also very cozy and sweet. The owner brought us our drinks first, while we waited for lunch. There was a fairly sizable selection of board games, so we played Parcheesi while sipped our tea/coffee and awaited lunch. She apparently hosts game nights fairly frequently, which sounded really fun. We had a great time getting to know the owner a bit more on the way out. And I even bought a darling vintage tea cup and the perfect mid-size tea infuser. Money all well spent! I highly recommend stopping in for at least a flavorful cup of tea, if not something to nibble.

We did ask about possible making or getting a suggestion for kidney stones. The person behind the counter snapped and said they couldn't give medical advice. No part of the question was asking for medical advice or help. After the rude response from the employee with cornrows/ dreadlocks, we as a family changed our mind about purchasing anything from a place that doesn't value their customers. Be very careful on the questions you ask and who you ask it to. Or stay clear of this joke of a business. (We were from out of town but our daughter lives in the area.) The feel after the negative encounter changed the atmosphere completely. 1 outta 10 would NOT recommend to anyone.
