Have treated myself to the smoked salmon repeatedly this summer; just finished a serving purchased 5 days ago which was still excellent though kept only refrigerated in its wrapping and container. There's NONE ANYWHERE near as good ANYWHERE else. Thank-you, Elmer and crew View all feedback. What Samantha E doesn't like about The Burning Tree:

This was all to go so you don't get to see what you pay for until you are gone and potentially far away or they are closed. Put green bean salad prices are $12 was the most messily minuscule item that I actually paid $12 for.... My husband and I finished it in... View all feedback.
