Harvest Seasonal Grill & Wine Bar is OPEN!

I have found my new hangout for the summer. I have been to Harvest twice and loved it both times. I love the fact that the menu isn’t carved in stone and changes daily, so I will never get bored. I love it that the items used to prepare the meals come fresh, from local farms, and the farms are listed at the top of the menu! I wasn’t sure that I loved the fact, actually had a moment of distress, when we were told that MOST of the items on the menu are 500 calories or less! THAT IS NEVER GOOD (when you love fatty pig fatty stuff like I do), but was not an issue here. I loved the atmosphere with its neutral earth tones, cool lighting and big roomy booths with lots of plants. The words "Give Love and Serve" hang over the open kitchen in great big block letters. Kinda random, but fun. ( I understand they went "Green" with the bar and it is made from recycled paper)

We started out with a DRINK, of course. Joe and I both ordered the Lavender Mojito. This drink was fantastic. Vanilla was the predominant flavor, mixed with a hint of lavender and mint making this drink so tasty, we had a few! Next was the Roasted Chicken Quesadilla. It was served fairly quickly and was really good. Joe ate most of it, of course. Being the lady I am, I just sipped (gulped) my drink and nibbled on a small piece. I ordered a veggie sandwich and Joe ordered a burger. The burger was big, juicy and by far the best burger either one of us have had. I wouldn't knock the veggie sandwich, it was also very good! Now, I forget, did I mention the Lavender mojito? The desert was very small, and I cant remember exactly what we got. We did have Lavender Mojitos, um, yea, they are THAT good.

On my second visit I had the Nutty Watermelon Salad which was very good, sweet and salty. I can see why it is a house favorite. I also had a few.... Lavender Mojitos, of course.

I say give this place a shot. Support local farmers, drink Lavender Mojitos and then go home and spend hundreds of dollars over the next few weeks perfecting your OWN Lavender Mojitos! I enjoyed the entire experience, the service was great and I am looking forward to going back.

Oh! It is incredibly difficult to find Vanilla RUM in your local liquor store! I had to master this drink at home. Joe drove me all around Wilmington and vicinity (about an hour and a half of driving. I get my mind set on something, and I don't quit until I get it) looking for it. I finally found it at liquor World on Milltown Road! THANKS JoeIE!

Give Love and Serve!
