Out of the 2 dishes (meatloaf and beet + mac 'n cheese), we both agreed that the beet mac and cheese was the best out of the 2! The meatloaf actually looked fantastic (you know that's a good sign with a dish like this!) and it actually ended up having a great flavor. The mac and cheese, however blew it out of the water! It was fantastic! My only complaint is that there was a noticeable lack of beets. I've heard this dish has been evolving and so my hope is that the next time I see it, I can have a beet in every bite!
Sitting outside was a bit of a mistake. There needs to be a better divide between me: the food eater and you: the bus people. It was just loud with the bus coming by every 5 minutes :(
