So often I find that if I eat something wonderful somewhere, or find a fabulous bargain outfit somewhere, never again when I return is it as good.... so many things must go into creating that one great moment.straynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-53717540066016492302009-06-25T20:57:15.693-06:002009-06-25T20:57:15.693-06:00Disappointing about the restaurant.

WOW! An entirely new menu...It was an AWFUL DINNER! WOW! An entirely new menu and new chef whose credentials were "he's cooked for the Telluride Film Festival." (which means he can make popcorn.)<br /><br />All the entries read like Trader Joe's specials, precooked, almost worth eating. <br /><br />We ordered the special of fried calamari as a starter and it came to the table cold. We were the only people in the restaurant. How does fried food come out cold when it's a special and you're the only two specials in the restaurant?<br /><br />We actually sent it back- we never send things back. Half an hour later as we waited for the pecan encrusted puke elk, a couple showed up and sent back the bottle of wine.<br /><br />NO DESSERT!! All they had was vanilla ice cream rolled in coconut which we all know is a desperation dessert when you have nothing. <br /><br />Major bummer, although we had a jolly time laughing at the sad weirdness of the place. <br /><br />Heading for the big shopping in Montrose in the morning, and you better believe I'm going to buy the biggest gooiest doughnut in the case.Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00874162149979602139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13524464.post-28053286319944243272009-06-25T14:41:26.654-06:002009-06-25T14:41:26.654-06:00I'll have the GRILLED WILD KING SALMON FILLET ...I'll have the GRILLED WILD KING SALMON FILLET with Dill Buerre Blanc & Served with Sweet Potato & Yukon Gold Hash with a 2nd potato side dish Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes and CHOCOLATE SILK TARTLET Topped with Fresh Blackberries & champagne (not in a can). <br /><br />And the CAESAR SALAD Hearts of Romaine Tossed with House Caesar Dressing, Grana Padano Cheese & Croutons because I'm on a diet.<br /><br />Whatever you do, don't order the BROWN SUGAR GLAZED FINGER BANANAS.Linda Davickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03660351950973083893noreply@blogger.com
