Well....after driving 2100 miles cross country with three vehicles and I got the farting dog, we deserved a decent meal but couldn't leave the pup alone yet. So we decided on take out - and Uncle Bear's was the closest we could find. And not a bad find at that!
DS ordered the Asian Chicken salad. It had a nice amount of chicken tossed with Mandarin oranges and greens and a very tasty sesame dressing - not overly gingery like some.
DH got the Thai pasta with chicken and he licked the plate clean. The peanut sauce was just kicky enough to add flavor but not enough to force him out with the farting dog. Tossed with diced tomatoes and cilantro and loads of cashews. Quite yummy.
We hit the trifecta with the Chicken Walnut salad. Granted, I am a wuss and left off the avocado but, trust me, it was not missed. Lots of chicken and lots of walnuts and grapes. But - and here was the crowning grace - the best raspberry vinagrette in town. Seriously good. It even had little bits of the berries in it. I would go back again for just that!
Portions were quite nice sized. Prices reasonable.
While picking up the food, I realized this is a truly dog-friendly restaurant - you can bring your pup and sit in the outside patio. You can be sure that we will take the DP (dear pup) with us the next time and eat in - and help ourselves to a dogbowl of peanuts while we are there!
