Escape to Deshler Morris House

In 1793, Yellow Fever that was running rampant in Philadelphia, President Washington made the wise decision to move the government’s operations north to Germantown, a settlement miles away from the plague-ravaged city. He set up his offices in a charming rented home, Deshler Morris House. We’ll tour the house and Chef Staib will prepare Shrimp Toast, along with a Larded Heart of Beef Tenderloin in Washington’s honor.
