On The Potomac, Lansdowne Resort’s upscale, casual restaurant, was thrilled to participate in the 22nd Annual Chocolates Galore & More! event last Friday evening. Pastry Chef Jamie Ream featured a Chocolate Peanut Butter Torte, consisting of layers of homemade cheesecake, chocolate cake and peanut butter, all covered in chocolate and topped with sweet and spicy peanuts.

The dessert, sampled by hundreds of attendees, was awarded with “Best Dessert Taste” in both the Critic’s Choice and People’s Choice categories. Best of all, the event raised $30,000 for YMCA’s Building Bridges Campaign that provides scholarships for summer day camps and after-school programs to area families in need.

“I loved putting this desert together and knowing that the proceeds went for a valuable cause made it even more special. I look forward to doing this again next year,” said Jamie.

Each year we look forward to the holidays and all of the events that go along with the festive season.  There must have been quite the buzz about our Gingerbread House Decorating Classes this year … they booked up quickly!  So of course we were thrilled and looked forward to our first class on December 5th.

From the look on the kids faces (complete concentration – they were into it!), we’d say the parents were heroes for bringing them here.  It was a candy heaven in our ballroom – loads of gingerbread and countless amounts of candy!

Now…we love feedback, as we are always striving to improve our service and guests’ experiences, but it’s compliments such as this that make our jobs so enjoyable and well worth doing:

“I wanted to pay you a gigantic compliment for the gingerbread decorating event this past Sunday at Lansdowne. I brought my niece and this is now our favorite holiday activity to do at Christmas time. The supplies were great, the help was great – everyone had positive attitudes and were so supportive and accommodating. Brilliant execution and a brilliant idea! I hope you all will keep doing this at Lansdowne for years to come. Our gingerbread house is absolutely adorable and every time I pass it, it makes me smile. It was terrific!”

Thanks Sandy K. for the kudos. This is one of our favorite annual events too!  We look forward to having you back next year!

Last weekend’s class was a success and we look forward to having our next set of gingerbread students here this weekend. Please feel free to contact us to share your feedback and compliment – we love to hear from you!

Also, check out the Leesburg Today for more from the event – Building With Sweat Treats.

Happy Holidays, Everyone!

The Holiday Season can be especially difficult for many families and while we want to reach out to them, we find ourselves unsure about how we can help.  Donating to a charity doesn’t always have to be in large sums, as a matter-of-fact every bit of help is always appreciated no matter how small or grand.

Participation in our Toy Drive  is a wonderful way to share love and joy this holiday season.  Something as small as donating a toy to the United States Marine Corps Toys for Tots can brighten a child’s Christmas in a huge way!

Bring a new, unwrapped toy to our Sunday Brunch on December 13th & 20th and receive $5.00 off*!

Our Sunday Brunch menu includes the famous Lansdowne Raw Bar, made to order omelettes, carved roasted meats, smoked salmon, and {save room for it} the dessert buffet!

Lansdowne Resort Sunday Brunch: 11 A.M. – 2 P.M.

• Adults: $49.00 per person plus tax and gratuity.
• Children ages 6-12 just $10.00 each plus tax and gratuity.
• Children 5 and under complimentary.

*This offer applies to the adult price only with a maximum discount of $10.00 per family. Offer valid through Dec. 20

Happy Holidays!
