In this stark white dining room, both elegant and welcoming, topped with paddle ceiling fans evoking that timeless Southern style, Trummer’s on Main remains an escape. An escape for grown-ups. An escape for a graceful meal. It’s stracciatella, strings of hand-pulled mozzarella, with peaches, ham and croutons in a puddle of cream. It’s crisp-skinned local rockfish next to a risotto immersed with crab and spruced up with a pink shellfish emulsion. It’s blueberry compote with broken bits of corn shortcake, some tufts of whipped cream and a roasted corn ice cream. It’s seasonal with an air of fancy. It’s thoughtful but not overcomplicated. It’s not just dinner; it’s a night out.
