Yahoo to Murphy's Law for keeping us happy!
The hubs and I met some friends for dinner/drinks before a concert and sat on their roof. I LOVE eating outside and since we're only able to do it a few months of the year, I try to take advantage whenever possible. The roof doesn't have the full bar like the inside does, but they have the basics and that was good enough for what we were doing.
I ordered a steak and mushroom pie and it came with mashed potatoes and peas. YUM!! It was dark and rich and an amazing example of comfort food. The steak was tender and shredded and the dark gravy was so good, it's hard to describe in words. The pie crust was the perfect blend of crumbly and buttery and complimented the richness of the steak and mushrooms perfectly. It seems as if someone stole grandma's old recipe because I could totally taste the love that went in to that dish.
Hubs ordered the mac and cheese and I tried a few bites and it also was superb.
The service was a bit slow but they were very busy and we weren't in too big of a hurry so it was no big deal. Murphy's Law is definitely up there as one of my new faves!
