| - Another restaurant that, while living in AZ, was a family favorite of ours. Many celebrations, and even Thanksgivings, were spent at this dining establishment. It's on a lakefront, very pretty and tranquil, but even the interior is very pleasant. In the days when I ate beef, I used to get their prime rib........deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelicious. Then, as I phased out of that, I changed to their Chicken Sonoma......a chicken breast sauteed and then topped with parmesan cheese, mushrooms, tomatoes and artichoke hearts in a Chardonnay wine sauce and served with garlic smashed potatoes (really yummy) and vegetables. I got that dish every darn time for years....except at Thanksgiving when they served traditional Thanksgiving fare, which was BEYOND awesome. As for desserts, I would get the Old Fashioned Skillet Apple Crisp, with granny smith apples, cinnamon, brown sugar and oatmeal crunch topping, plus vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce. My daughters typically got Buster's Mud Pie, made with Haagen Dazs chocolate and coffee ice cream
layered in a rich chocolate cake. Topped with chocolate sauce,
almonds and whipped cream. This place did not skip a beat, and you can be sure, the next time we're back in Scottsdale, we WILL go HERE !!
