Eating Out 2018

[gold sunrise]

Loved the gas station chicken, not your typical plate lunches. Will go back there tomorrow. Best kept secret in town. I like to eat off the eaten path when I eat out and find great food in a little whole in the wall place.

The Jeff Ruby Cincy area restaurants are running a special till the end of the month. Filet and lobster tail for 2 for $99.00! Tried it tonight since schedule will be brutal before the end of the month. Includes salad and sides. Great deal!

Don’t get me wrong, we had a couple of drinks and some apps so it was not a cheap date. Luckily we had some Ruby certificates from Xmas that helped ease the pain.

If you plan on trying it, book now. Placed as sold out tonight. We did the Precinct.

LOL yes I did.

 

Went back to service station for a plate lunch today. Fried fish, green beans with country ham, and steamed veggies, and energy drink. It was good and reasonable, $5.99.

Men are gone to Florida so it is just me.

 

Yesterday I had tomota soup, cottage cheese, tomatoes and Cheetos and energy drink

We just don't eat out all that much, especially expensive places. If we want that type of food I cook it myself. I make great Crab Legs, which I get on sale and Prime Rib too. My sides are better too......:sssh:

Been another week of eating out. I was in Hilton Head last week on a guys trip. There was no cooking going on in the house.

 

Came home Monday and had dinner booked at Sotto. What a great dining experience. Foods I would never order (nor could I pronounce them). We had 4 of us and shared plates on the recommendation of the server. Everything was fantastic. Even had these little powdery doughnuts to end the evening.

 

Last night used a Groupon for a place in Covington called Inspirado. Friends had told us about it and the groupon appeared the next day. Another great experience. Food and staff were both top notch.

Ate lunch at the Chop House with Coach Joe B Hall and the UK lunch group. I had the scrod with snow peas. Husband had the prim rib sandwich with a baked sweet potato. Son had salad. All was very good. I love the Chop House.

Ok I may have met my match. I just added butcher and barrel to my list tonight. Been thinking about starting a new thread/forum called Tac’s take.all about my dining experiences. I’m assuming the Guru would give me my own forum since that weather guy I adore got one. Lol.

On a related note, we were traveling back from Cincy last week and saw a giant backup at the top of the hill, just out of Wilder. Took a detour on the Licking Pike to get around it and almost immediately passed the Knotty Pine. Took the opportunity to check out the menu. I think our first trip there is in the near future.
