Few views in Vermont compare with those from the window tables overlooking spectacular Ottauquechee Falls in Simon Pearce's dining room, suspended over the river in a converted brick mill. Local ingredients are used to fine effect in salads, cheese plates and dishes such as braised lamb shoulder or cider-brined chicken. The restaurant's stemware is hand-blown in the adjacent glass workshop.
