When the Sterns want to get into the holiday spirit they head to an old-fashioned country inn, and one of their favorites, the Silvermine Tavern, isn't far from their Connecticut home. The place is famous for its Sunday brunch and the little honey buns Michael loves. It's a classic New England country inn loaded with charm, creaky floors, glowing fireplaces and views of a beautiful pond. It's decorated to the hilt for the holidays and the Christmas Eve buffet is grand.
