Your table is waiting!
One of the very best restaurants at which you could dine. Atmosphere is quiet and demure, Tables are pristine clean; Servers are polite and professional and dressed in definable and clean uniforms; Plating is imaginative and could be defined as “eye candy” and plate has some sort of garnish, such as parsley or other greens or perhaps an orange slice etc., Food is cooked to proper doneness, void of excessive oil / grease, and is eye appealing.

In my career are twenty-five-plus years learning the restaurant business – from top to bottom – and six years in a Midwest university learning and polishing my writing skills. I have spent a good number of those years (just how many yet to be determined) on the road and authored well over 150 reviews & articles – and still counting.
I’ve traveled from Maine to Florida, from Boston to San Francisco, from Seattle to San Diego, and from Dallas to way north of Duluth, sampling and writing about food. And Yes, I love restaurants, I love preparing, writing about, and eating, food. I hope you enjoy reading what I have written!
Through the years, Lauren and I have made numerous visits
