Enclosed in glass and tastefully decorated with deep upholstered armchairs, dark wood, fresh flowers, and a good dose of style, Seasons is the elegant flagship restaurant of the Four Seasons Hotel (see). The sophisticated American-French menu offers simple, elegant fare that makes this an ideal locale for a business or special-occasion meal. The kitchen is not trying to win awards for wild, far-out food. The dishes here will all be familiar, but even the most familiar foods can surprise you when they’re prepared with the best ingredients, passion, and skill. To complement the classic menu, you can choose from old-world or North American wines, or an extensive selection of wines by the glass. For an afternoon delight, stop by the Garden Terrace for tea service with all the trimmings—scones with clotted cream, cucumber and watercress sandwiches with the crusts cut off, petit fours, chocolate-dipped strawberries, and assorted butter cookies. The Sunday brunch should not be missed, with its impressive item selection and live entertainment.
