Eating out in Logan in the Fall 2021

Weller's Bistro.  197 N. Main St, Layton, UT  https://www.facebook.com/wellersbistro

We got the Goulash with spätzle but subbed out the sauerkraut for rotkohl.  Everything was so good!  We only shared a dish but we both liked it and will definitely be back.

Maddox in Perry, UT.  I went here with Daisy in August and again in September.  Both times I felt the food was good comfort food but too heavy for my taste.  https://maddoxfinefood.com/  We decided we will not be back to Maddox for most of their menu but some items stood out such as their batter rolls.

Aggie ice cream.  Not to be missed if you like ice cream at all!  https://www.usu.edu/aggieicecream/

 

Happy Anniversary Darling, Part 3 (the end)!

Dave standing in front of the torch by the heavy wooden door with stained glass leading into the formal dining area.

Jean standing in front of one of the many murals adorning the walls all around the restaurant-this one invites us to the feast.
Dave’s Death by Chocolate dessert-a flour-less chocolate cake adorned with fresh raspberries and a touch of raspberry sauce to the side
Jean’s Crème Brulee with a chocolate dipped strawberry and the red rose they gave us for our anniversary. And that’s all folks!

Happy Anniversary Darling, Part 2!

“Halt! Who goes there?!? “ That is the question posed by the animatronics Sherwood type sentry that guards the inner door to the restaurant. It’s a bit unusual to step into a outer courtyard that’s only the size of a small room with a sentry, lions, a flower garden, vines and a “flaming torch”. Reminded me of some of the maze like queuing lines at Disneyland.

So this really nice restaurant with costumed staff is in a strip mall type atmosphere. It’s still a nice place although we almost did not find it for looking for a medieval type restaurant building.

Here we are, all smiles with our yummy food. Noticed our coordinated blue plaid shirts-completely unintentional but still fun that we think along similar lines sometimes. We had a long-haired robin hood type maiden in a boat for our picture above our table-but the flash is greatly obscuring it.

I had the red snapper amandine with rice pilaf and the fresh vegetable (yummy asparagus!). It was tender and flaky and the rice pilaf almost feels like it’s melting in your mouth.

Dave chose the King Richard’s cut of prime rib along with a baked potato and the asparagus (which I enjoyed since Dave’s not an asparagus fan.) He says his prime rib was excellent-the small bite I had was so tender. Look for the desserts in the next entry!

Happy Anniversary Darling!

How wonderful it is to be married to a wonderful man who displays so many wonderful traits. We were able to celebrate our anniversary today. Considering that our celebrations have rarely fallen on the actual anniversary and have varied from the actual date by as much as a month then I’m grateful for when we can celebrate. Dave took me to the elegant restaurant, Ye Lions Den, in Ogden. Dave shows off his enthusiasm for the raw onion in the veggie tray served with a delicious spinach dip.

Next is the lone scone left from the batch that I hurried and snagged to take a picture before it was eaten with a dab of the raspberry honey butter and whipped butter. On the bottom is my scrumptious French onion soup (Dave had the salad which was organic baby greens with a homemade Thousand Island dressing.) Hungry? There’ll be more from the meal in a later post.
