Truly a hidden gem of Peninsula-Filoli

Filoli is a historical mansion situated in the breathtaking Peninsula. It is well hidden in the woods by highway 280.

Not only is Filoli a magnificent mansion, it also has one of the most unequivocal well manicured garden. It's beyond imagination that at one time of the history, the home was actually occupied by the 2 different families!

We started our day by checking at the visitor center and get an overview of this beautiful places.

Enjoying afternoon tea at the adjacent compound


We started with Fall Waldorf Salad which complemented  exceptionally well with cranberry scone with lemon curd and zucchini madeleines.

Tea sandwiches consisted of cucumber with radishes and dill, egg salad with spinach, crab tartlets, smoked turkey with cranberry cream cheese and ham, brie and apple on mini baguettes.


For dessert, there was extensive selection of pumpkin spice bars, Halloween petite fours, black forest brownine and apple streusel tart.


Ahhhh, truly a fulling and relaxing experience at the Filoli!!
