The website that Washington lives by.
, has been a foodie destination with national acclaim for a decade. For much of that time, his wife Leslie Boden has been lobbying to open another restaurant nearby, this time with an inn so diners could turn their visits into weekend getaways. Finally, it’s come to fruition: Maude & the Bear offers a seasonal tasting menu and three suites in a freshly renovated, century-old house in the Shenandoah Valley, about two-and-a-half hours from DC.
“I’m not really trying to reinvent the wheel so much these days,” Boden says. “My focus is much more on making sure that everything we’re cooking, the technique is appropriate and everything on the plate is perfect.”Four courses go for $90, while a seven course menu costs $140. Diners can splurge $250 for the “Kitchen Table,” which offers one seating each night with 12 to 16 courses including caviar service. An a la carte small plates menu is available at the bar.
The inn itself includes two suites in the main house plus a detached cottage with a full kitchen and washer and dryer. Leslie designed each space, named after Aesop’s fables, with a clean look that draws some mid-century and boho inspiration. Each suite includes a king-sized bed, sitting room, high-speed wi-fi, and mini fridges stocked with complimentary snacks and drinks.
