Bedford Post sign, and the restaurant's heirloom tomato salad served with mozzarella, shaved fennel, and purslane, from The Martha Blog.

In her blog, Martha Stewart describes the delicious food at Bedford Post, an 18th-century house and barn converted into a luxury inn, located in Bedford, New York, owned by actor Richard Gere and his business partner, Russell Hernandez. For his menu of "American Farmhouse Cuisine," chef Brian Lewis uses ingredients gathered "from small family farms, using only what’s in season and only of the highest quality." The cafe serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and sells freshly baked goods at its bakery counter. To read more information, visit richard-gere.us.
