Cocktail hour before Sunday dinner. White wine and a Hendrick's martini. 

Sunday Dinner

Saturday, September 19, 2015

Dale made the most delicious dinner. It's been a while since we've had steak and even longer since we've had his most awesome oven baked Brussels sprouts.

Dessert was one of my favorites from Kowalski's. Chocolate dream.

Brunch - Red Stag Supper Club

Great brunch with Dale at the Red Stag Supper Club.  Dale had an egg scramble with sliced turkey and spinach. I had the prime rib eggs benedict. Both came with has browns. Sound good? It was!

They also make an awesome Bloody Mary. It came with a beer chaser - very Minnesotan.

Salmon for Dinner

Brunch at Jax Cafe

Sunday, September 6, 2015

After church Dale and I decided to head to Sunday brunch at Pizza Luce. There was some kind of block party happening in front of it so we decided to try someplace else instead. I suggested Jax so we headed right over. We parked on Sirloin Strip and were seated almost immediately after entering the restaurant. 

They really had an amazing brunch spread. The lamb was quite the highlight and our server Megan sold me on the Polish Bloody Mary. I asked what made it Posish and she told me they used a Polish potato based vodka. It was an amazing Bloody Mary. Another server named Tommy came to our table and told us he was working with Megan "because they needed to let her sit down once in a while." He asked if we needed anything. We didn't but thanked him. They've got such great service there. They had a piano player this morning and our booth was right next the her baby grand. She performed a very charming Sound of Music medley. 

We toured the patio to take a look at their trout stream. I told Dale that the most elusive trout in the stream is named Captain Jack and that if if you catch him you get a special prize. He believed me. Sucker, but God I love him.
