9/9/23 – Q-tips say: Had a wonderful time visiting with our long time Chicago friends. Glad they are doing ok.

Mrs. Q says: I don’t mind paying a higher price for dinner (like at Shaw’s Crab house downtown, etc.) but not for mediocre food. Over all: Was over priced & over-rated. A tad dark inside – we ate outside – was nice till the airplanes from the airport flew over.

It was a long drive for the Q’s to get here – if my meal was more enjoyable, would not mind the drive.

One friends had: He had: Spaghetti & Meatballs – Marinara, handmade meatball & the She had: Rigatoni alla Vodka – Vodka sauce, fresh basil & they shared a Salad. They seemed to enjoy the meal.

The other half had: Lamb Chop Lollipop. A Perfect Manhattan. He said the Lamb Chops were ok & ate some of my fries.

Mrs. Q had: I am not a big Pasta fan so I had Baby Back BBQ Ribs – Served with fries and coleslaw. Did not enjoy a bit of my dinner – the ribs were not baby – they were Gigantic & nothing special about the Cole slaw or fries. My drink was good: OLD FASHIONED – Maker’s Mark Bourbon, Simple Syrup, Orange, Angostura Bitters, Luxardo Cherry. Probably should have had: A Burger.

The Q’s began with sharing: Caesar Salad.

We shared the dessert & all enjoyed the dessert: NUTELLA BEIGNETS.
