Lotus Farm to Table in Media has updated its menu with summer selections. Throughout the menu you’ll find touches of citrus and lemon, a refreshing addition to the season. Everything from starters like the wild goose oysters and the duck confit leg to main dishes like the grilled tofu and the rainbow trout have included some sort of citrus. A whole branzino for two might pair well with Lotus’ hand-rolled teas or the long list of a la carte cheeses.
