Delicious, delicious, delicious! Perfectly cooked wild Copper River salmon, perfect iced Tangueray martini, and superb creme fraeche ice cream with caramel sauce and toffee pieces - Oh My! I,too, thought our waiter and the service were top notch. This was one of my favorites! It was great fun! And thanks to Rick for making sure Holly recieved her meal FIRST - which WAS a first!

Everything was awesome! The service was excellent; he was like a ghost, your water glass would fill without you even noticing. It was great to be served first this time around after not being served at all during the prior dinner. The flank steak with blue cheese was exquisite - cooked perfectly with a lovely flavor. The homeade biscuit for the strawberry shortcake was to DIE FOR! This was also one of my favorite dining nights! Holly
