Take for instance my first substack post, in it I barely mentioned the restaurant, almost exclusively talking about myself. The ironic part is that if it weren’t for the restaurant there would be no reason for me to be writing this at all. So selfish Pat. Sooo selfish.

While our restaurant has been put to bed until St. Patrick’s Day, we are enjoying some family time, and projects are being planned, new visions are being refined, and we are looking forward to a great 2026 and beyond.

They say to achieve a dream, you have to visualize what success looks like…

The nine wines we are drinking this season. Hand selected by Orchard Kitchen's very own Wine Maven, Tyla Nattress. All of these wines pair well with cozy evenings and hearty meals and are sure to impress dinner guests. Especially number 1!

Vincent will be finishing his book at the start of 2026.
