Transport yourself to the countryside of Alsace at L'Auberge Chez Francois, a destination dining experience in Fairfax County. The site has a hand-welded outdoor fire pit in its wine and beer garden, overlooking six acres of land and gardens. Rack of lamb and fresh rainbow trout are also among wise choices, and diners would be remiss to leave without sampling the delightful plum tart, or a hot souffle.
