About: The Orchard Restaurant

Opened in the fall of 2003, The Orchard was painted as a vision of country dining to the Brandywine Valley.
The Orchard and its plush, softly lit dining room boasts contemporary clean lines of crisp white paneling, well placed antiques and plush fabrics that blend timeless elegance with one foot planted in old world luxury.
Chef Trevisani's menu features new American - International cuisine that is best summed up as "well dressed" comfort food reflecting his formal training in the French style, now evolved into an eclectic fusion of continental cuisine. His attention to detail and the architecture of each plate proves his theory that food should be nothing less than a gift presented at the table..

Chef/Proprietor Gary Trevisani

The journey that took Gary Trevisani to the helm of The Orchard in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania began many years ago. As a teenager, Chef Trevisani discovered that cooking for people was a way to reach someone’s heart. For decades he dedicated himself to developing the skills and appreciation that only a true professional gastronome and gourmand can claim.

His career advanced him through some Philadelphia’s most acclaimed restaurants. Chef Trevisani then made a commitment to furthering the culinary careers of others by joining the faculty of The Restaurant School at Walnut Hill College, the country’s first private college dedicated to careers in fine dining and luxury hospitality businesses. Chef Trevisani eventually guided the curricula at the college as its Director of Culinary Arts.

His teaching skills and passion could also be found outside the classroom on televised cooking demonstrations collaborating with national celebrity chefs and cook book authors, including: Georges Perrier, Christina Pirello, Michael Romano and Douglas Rodriguez, to name a few. Bon Appétit.
