| - National Chains are NOT our usual destination, however this is very close to home and it was later than usual.
We missed the rush Friday night crowd...so bartenders were spiffing up when we arrived.
We always sit at the bar, and the bartenders are ALL good, friendly and take excellent care of us.
We dine out on Italian regularly...so we are not easy to impress, but last night this Olive Garden was better than usual.
Caesar salad (not vinegary) now has a crispy parm topping, instead of croutons...LOVED THEM! Nice touch.
Herb pan seared salmon was very good, not dry, nor over/under cooked. Broccoli was a bit overcooked...but usually is. However, not mushy.
Thanks to Olive Garden, I can now be a RED WINE DRINKER...which I have wanted for us for a long time! The red grape skins in red wine contain Resveratrol a very health promoting component...good for the heart and immune system.
ROSCATO from Italy is the wine. It is sweeter than other reds, and served chilled. We adore it now! Slightly lower alcohol content so you can sip another glass! It is not overly sweet, just right!
Dream come true...a red we can love!
