Supercoolio, Meryl!!  Thank you for sharing.

Leslie, I guess it was the thought that counts.  And it sounds like they are losing they're shyness.

Great pictures, Meryl. Love 'em all.

Beautiful light, beautiful picture.


I think this offer is such a clever idea! I'd pay the 25 bucks in a minute.

Yes, they are losing their shyness. And they have become friends with each other, which is nice.

Great pictures, Meryl! It looks like a great time!

66 degrees this morning and we have another nice day in store for us...

Well, unfortunately I didn't take pictures, but I can give you a description. We had 3 dishes:

1) "scrambled eggs" (their words) with ketchup on top
2) sort of an omelette thing..with ketchup on top
3) salad made with lettuce and tomatoes and in the center, cooked onions and kielbasa

Okay, my review...

#1. I didn't try.
#2 was reminiscent of egg sushi...sort of the folded over egg concoction...the layers weren't as thin as at the sushi bar and I wasn't too crazy about the ketchup but all in all...it was okay.
#3 Salad was good. I still don't know where they got the onions and kielbasa from (all chopped up in tiny little pieces) but all put together it was quite tasty. I would eat this again.

My Japanese guests, however, have discovered S'MORES and think they are the food of the gods...LOL....for two nights we have had a campfire, marshmallows, chocolate and graham cracker affair...which has been hugely successful....

All of this makes me think...Chrissi, when I come to visit you, I can cook American....you should think of what you want....

Well, eggs with ketchup doesn't sound very exotic, lol
But the salad sounds good.

I had to look up s'mores (I think we've talked about that before, I remember the name) - I'm sure they're not for me, with my dislike of melted marshmellows (Hi LauraGigs! ).

Thanks for your offer to cook for us, I'll come up with something. *strolls over to the many food threads we have on BM.....*

Whenever I think of American food I remember a story of a friend of mine who visited some distant relatives in the southern U.S..  She was at a BBQ and couldn't figure out what kind of meat she was eating.  When she asked the hostess she was told:  "Why, it's BARBECUE hon!".  She still doesn't know what animal it was...

Bonjour... good day to all !!

Thanks Chrissi and everyone.  This is such a good idea that I think they should make it permanent, or at least a regular summer offering.  Tourists especially would love it.

I'm pleasantly surprised they only charge $25.
