| - Came to the Desert Botanical Garden to meet up with boo thang's dad, brother and his family, and wanted to have breakfast at Gertrude's before we decided to walk around the Garden. It was just about 9:15am when we arrived, asked for a table for 8, and got a little push back from the hostess (who actually may have been the supervisor, I think) well when we requested our table for 8, she said she wasn't sure if she could get us one and that we should of called the day before to request a table that size and so that they could be ready for us. Well that's offputting - maybe I would of understood more if it was a packed house at the time, but it sure as hell was not! There was one other family of 4 and a table for 2 out on the patio, that's it! There was plenty of room for us and for them to out together 2 tables!..
Ok breathe Dianne...anyway food was ok everyone seemed happy with their meals. But mine was underwhelming. I had the Breakfast Bowl, which was to be pork gumbo with eggs and a corn muffin. It was more just refried beans, a lifeless egg and a corn muffin just thrown all up in the beans. I guess I expected a bit more of a presentation.
All in all - loved the Desert Botanical Garden, just next time, I'll eat before I get there
