| - I had breakfast here twice - and dinner twice.
Dinner #1:
Chicken soup: consisted of Avocado, Radish, Spicy Pepper, Corn Spaetzle, Tomato, Cilantro, and Lime. The soup was rather average. It sounded better than it actually was. I ended up adding a good bit of black pepper and hot sauce to make the soup interesting.
Spinach Salad: Consisted of course of Spinach, Benton's Lardons, Shaved Fennel, Mustard Vinaigrette, and Manchebo cheese. The Spinach salad was very tasty, the crunchy bacon (Lardons) on the salad really elevated it.
Breakfast #1:
Went with the buffet and had them make me a custom omelette: Spinach, mushrooms, onions, and two kinds of cheese. Plus some bacon and smoked salmon on the side. I added some chopped red onions and capers on the smoked salmon. The omelette was really good. Also had a glass of V-8 juice, coffee, and water. Coffee was strong and good.
Dinner #2:
Had dinner in room. Ordered the Truffle Mac & Cheese (Marscapone, Chive, Parmesan Crisp), an order of the Hand Cut Salt Salt Fries (served with a Malt Vinegar Aioli), and the Natural Free Range Chicken Wings (ordered extra crispy) (served with Buffalo Sauce, Celery Leaves, and Pickled Carrots).
The Truffle Mac & Cheese was very creamy and oh so good! I did add some black pepper and some hot sauce to it - as that is how I roll. The fries were hot and crispy, and the wings were cooked extra crispy as I requested.
Breakfast #2:
Again - went with the buffet and had them make me another custom omelette: Spinach, mushrooms, onions, and fresh jalapeƱos. They pulled out some pickled jalapeƱos - which are not very good in an omelette. So they went and got some fresh ones to add - and two kinds of cheese. Plus some bacon and biscuits and sausage gravy on the side.
Omelette was awesome, bacon was tasty. But the biscuits were hard, they had been on the buffet to long, and the sausage gravy, while tasty, had been out a bit to long.
Also had a glass of V-8 juice, coffee, and water. Coffee was strong and good.
Service was very good each time.
