This would be the superfruit martini and it came with a cute little bracelet.
Who still has their bracelet? Anyone?
Ahhhhh - Here's what I was waiting for. A nice glass of wine! Knowing that Cynthia was so good with wine, I had her pick my beverage de jour!
And because Cynthia picked, I have no idea what type of wine it was. I'm sure she'll remember. She's good like that. Whatever it was - it was delish and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
And because I enjoyed it so much, here's my artsy spin on my picture (or perhaps thats actually how the wine looked after a few glasses). Ho Hum!
I do! I have my bracelet! And a couple of pictures
I love how serious Mary Ellen looks here!
It is SUCH a gorgeous resort!
But the bar area didn't photograph all that well for me
Nor did the restaurant but I did enjoy these wine racks
Everything else I took was your standard lobby or pool shot, pretty boring.
I did enjoy Jiko very much. Alas, I have no clue what kind of wine I chose for Mary Ellen, though I think I recall the one we had the next day at lunch. I know I had a glass of pinotage that was lovely. I did like my duck but it wasn't the best duck ever. Good but not earth shattering. Not really worth 2 credits but OOP I'd probably have been fine with it. And heck I was fine with the 2 credits but if I'd have been with my family, maybe not so much. Generally speaking OOP always seems a better deal at the signatures.
I wish I'd have gotten those short ribs. I loved the ambiance of the place though, that's for sure! The service was very good and attentive but a bit lacking in personality and we had to wait longer than I'd like for our table but overall it was a very good meal. Prior to this trip I'd not eaten at any of the signatures so it was fun to go to a couple and compare.
