A Taste of the Murphin Ridge Inn
Author: Sherry McKenney
Chosen by National Geographic Traveler and other guides as one of the best B&Bs in Ohio and the Midwest, the Murphin Ridge Inn is as famous for its old-fashioned charms and exquisite food as it is for its bucolic setting in the rolling farmland of Southwestern Ohio's Amish country. A Taste of the Murphin Ridge Inn captures the magic of this beloved hideaway, from the rustic 1826 farmhouse to the Foggy Bottom Pancakes. Owner Sherry McKenney reflects on the changing seasons on the ridge, the joys of running a bed and breakfast, and the lush herb and vegetable gardens that supply the restaurant with fresh fare. She also shares the secrets of her kitchen, offering more than 130 of the recipes visitors have requested through the years. If you've ever spent an evening stargazing from the inn's front porch, or set out hiking with Red Dog as the sugar maple leaves drift down on a crisp autumn day, this book will awaken fond memories. If you haven't yet discovered this heaven in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, the delicious recipes and musings n A Taste of the Murphin Ridge Inn will transport you to a place where the cooking is from scratch and the welcome is genuine.
