Tasty Fare

What is your favorite restaurant?

Locally, it’s a place that’s been in business for about seven years now– decent pub food, good beer. They have a pork chop entree that’s quite delicious. We often stop at a Chipotle for lunch when we’re out and about. And sometimes we’re close enough to East Earl, PA to rationalize a stop at Shady Maple Smorgasbord.

Fancy restaurants are usually off the table, but on recent visits to our daughter and son-in-law outside of Denver, I was treated to a wonderful meal at a Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse, and a Japanese sushi establishment that’s out of this world. These were a whole other level of dining.

What is your favorite restaurant?

I haven’t been to many besides the chain outlets. Among these it’s gonna be Chipotle, Panera, and every now and then, and just because it’s relatively quick and easy and uncannily delicious, one of the burger joints– either McDonald’s, Burger King, or Wendy’s.

I was lucky enough to have a meal at a Japanese sushi bar and restaurant outside of downtown Denver, CO a few weeks ago, and that was a real treat. The food was fantastic, the waitstaff was a cut above, and I think I might have finally gotten the hang of chopsticks. On an earlier trip to the area, I was treated to a meal at the Ruth’s Chris Steak House in Denver, which was like no place I’ve ever been. Great food, and unearthly prices (my daughter and son-in-law had gift cards).
