The views of the bay are as superb as the imaginative French cuisine at this outstanding restaurant in Heritage Harbor. The menu, which changes weekly, might include rack of lamb Dijonnaise, roast beef and much more...

The ambience measures up to the food at Fresh Cream, with glitter­ing harbor views and a posh interior of gleaming blond woods and mut­ed colors. However, it's of course the food that helps the spot to be so popular.
