A Cozy Candlelit Farmhouse Dinner in Upstate NY 🕯️

My boyfriend and I visited Stissing House in upstate New York today, and the atmosphere was so charming — a rustic-chic farmhouse setting that felt intimate, artistic, and wonderfully relaxing. Their menu focuses on live-fire cooking, and the charcoal-grilled scallops were incredible — plump, tender, and possibly the best scallops I’ve ever tasted. 🔥 The wood-fired chicken 🍗 was another standout — crispy-skinned, juicy, and served with perfectly seasoned roasted potatoes. We also loved the grilled fish 🐟 paired with creamy mushroom sauce — fresh, delicate, and full of flavor. For dessert, the coconut cake 🍰 was huge and delicious, especially with a side of coffee ice cream — sweet but not cloying, a lovely end to a memorable meal. If you’re up for a scenic drive and a rustic-elegant dining experience, Stissing House is a true upstate gem. ✨ 📍 Address: 7801 S Main St, Pine Plains, NY 12567 Loved this countryside escape?
