Apparently, I'm the meat eater in this family

He gets burgers, and I get steak. Damn good steak at that. Still in Boulder. 

Boulder, Co

Whatever those little things were, they were incredible. Mushrooms stuffed with something. 

Restaurant

The shrimp cocktail was followed by shrimp salad. Superb. Expensive, but superb. 

Shrimp cocktail

I've never yet had a bad shrimp cocktail. This was at a Mexican restaurant in Boulder, Co. Drool. 

Restaurant

Some kind of roast beef. And Rickard's white or something similar. For bar food, it was great!

Restaurant

You know, for a restaurant, this wasn't that great a meal. It tasted good, and the meat was good, but it seemed a bit simple for a fancy place with its own wine. 

Restaurant meal

I liked it!

Fancy restaurant meal

Restaurant meal

Snow peas and fettuccine. With some kind of meat. I think shrimp. It was really good, though I think the only difference between what I make at home is the amount of fat and salt they use. 


Restaurant meal

Blackened salmon with mango chutney, rice, vegs. 

My standard meal at this restaurant. It's always good. 


Not that good

This is Montana's cook house. Or whatever it's called. 

The food was expensive and absolutely awful. 

The beer was good. 

If we ever go there again - if - it will be for beer only. 

Montreal food

An amazing meal. Their seafood salad was so incredible, I had three helpings. Then I had to be rolled out of the buffet because I couldn't really move. 


A giant pile of smoked meat

Literally. 

Smoked meat restaurant in Montreal. It was superb. Ridiculously delicious. And SO MUCH MEAT. 

Oh yeah, the cole slaw was also nice. 


It wasn't that good

For a fancy restaurant and the price, I expected better. 

The ribs were massive, as advertised, but they certainly weren't "falling off the bone". The meat had to be ripped off the bone violently with teeth. They were also burnt. It wasn't so much meat, as bone leftovers burnt to a crisp. 

The wine was good. The veggies were wonderful. The potato was standard.

Restaurant meal

This was at Cactus club (for future reference).

Lamb meatballs (or bison? Some sort of exotic meat)
Angel hair pasta
Truffle oil
Some kind of soft cheese (goat or feta)

I particularly liked the truffle oil. I would like to use it in cooking, but I'm worried I'll use too much. I need to learn how to use it.

Wedding meal

I loved this meal. It was both delicious and healthy. Tons of vegs, salad and yummy meat.
