The Spotted Horse and Westport Fine Arts Festival

7/18/2015

On Saturday, July 18th, Fairfield County "It" had lunch at a much loved upscale pub, The Spotted Horse, before heading over to the Westport Fine Arts Festival.

"It" Holistic Wellness Carrie and I shared the golden and ruby beet salad. The beets were paired with frisee, candied walnuts, goat cheese and aged sherry vinaigrette (delish). I also dined on the tuna tartar with yucon golden potato chips, capers, Dijon and Moroccan spice paste, a favorite!

Others enjoyed:

* Maine lobster club with avocado and bacon
* Seared filet tips w/ roasted corn salsa (yum)
* Blackened Baja fish tacos
* Chicken Milanese w/ lemon vinaigrette & yogurt
* Artichoke Caesar salad
* Ahi Tuna Taco

After lunch, we were off to the Westport Fine Arts Festival to enjoy the work of many fine artists, presenting numerous artistic disciplines!
Several of us purchased items as we meandered through the exhibits.

Halfway through the festival some of us stopped for a refreshment and enjoyed listening to a delightful band called Shiny Lapel Trio. The group showcased their ease with swing, jazz and rock, and great vocal talent. A fun diversion from the art exploration.
