Reviews
“Chef & the Farmer is much more than a stopover. It’s a worthy destination in it’s own right, well worth the hour and a half drive from the Triangle.” | Greg Cox – News and Observer
“Howard’s creations are subtle, never overwrought. Like the best of cooks, she allows the quality of her ingredients to shine without drawing attention to technique, elaborate garniture or shocking flavor combinations.” | Moreton Neal – Metro Magazine
“This restaurant is one of the best I have ever been to. They truly serve elevated COMFORT FOOD with an equal emphasis on creating an exceedingly comfortable environment, with outstanding service. And ohhhh the FOOD.” | Trip Advisor
“Ate dinner there with my wife and her friend from out of town last weekend. One word. FANTASTIC!” | Open Table
