First of all,
to the new posters,
HadesTX and
pixiechick! Thanks for taking the time to stop by and post a comment.
The salmon looks great in your 2010 pic. And I've never seen pics from the Artist Point character meal before. I knew it existed (and I've read good things about the blueberry french toast that was once served there), but it's very cool to see real pics from this meal.
Part of me wishes the signature restaurants served breakfast or brunch (maybe a Sunday brunch). After seeing this
review of a Narcoossee's TIW brunch event, I think there's so much potential for breakfast food at a signature level.
Hmmm...blueberry french toast.
I don't remember that, but I bet I loved it.
And that Narcoossee's brunch looked wonderful! Unfortunately, I read the review while I was having my breakfast this morning. It made my bowl of cereal and cup of coffee look quite pitiful. So thanks for that, Donald!
Interesting that you mentioned the cheese plate only had 3 cheeses. I went back to my photos and sure enough only 3 little slices of cheese with some skimpy garnishes and walnut toast. Hmmm... I'm now rethinking the value of this item.
Whoa! That cheese plate does look
very underwhelming.
I agree about the mushroom soup at Artist Point. We were given this as an amuse bouche back in October. I hate all things mushroom, but that soup was actually very good. DH loved it... unfortunately I spilled half of mine on the floor.
(It was a long day)
Now I'm not one to cry over spilled milk, but spilling that soup would be a whole different story. I think there would have been a few tears shed if I had spilled half of my soup on the floor...and it wouldn't have just been my daughter's.
Oh now I am on the edge of my seat waiting to hear what entrees you all ordered
Hey Linda, you are my 400th post!!!
Too bad there is no prize involved.
Love the vintage pics! The scrapbooker in me would totally do some "then and now" pages.
I know what you are saying about a mom's sacrifice. Why is it that every time I'm certain that my kids won't eat something, they always polish it off? Especially when I get sushi. My middle son even eats all the ginger and wasabi.
Wow, your son must have a higher tolerance for spice than me. My first experience with wasabi was several years ago when it was served on the side of my California sushi roll. Not knowing any better, I wrongly assumed that it was something like guacamole. Consequently, I spread a whole lot of that stuff on my first bite of sushi roll. YIKES!
Wow, my sinuses were clear for days after that.
So anyway, I quickly learned that when it comes to me and wasabi...less is definitely more!
I just caught up on reading your report. Love it. We are considering going back to Artist Point, haven't been there in a few years, and you may push me in one direction or the other.
From one "Good Morning" singer to another!
Yay, another disboarder who likes to torture their family in the morning!
That soups is DS's absolute favorite. In my quest that we should all get different things, I have never ordered it and he begrudingly only allows we one spoonful. I may have to change my rules this year and get my own bowl!
Yep, that soup is definitely a good reason to break the rules!
