NATURAL BRAISED SHORT RIB STROGRANOFFveal demi, red wine,truffle oil, broccolini, créme fraiche, crimini mushroom, potato gnocchi, oregano chimichrri $22 A meal fit for a king. We were givenasparagus instead of brocolini, but we didn’t mind considering the wholemeal was on point

WOOD PLANKED ALL-NATURAL PORK CHOP aple bourban glaze, andouille sausage bbq, asiago mac and cheese $20 Presentation, wow, this pork chop comes out on a platform of glory and after admiring this meal the quality and taste of the meat was the encore we were looking for.

KIDS CHICKENFINGERSour 3 year old gave this one 2 thumbs up,we also love that they have a kids steakoption. It’s refreshing to offer your child anunprocessed meal.

CRONUT

ASIAGOMAC & CHEESEForget the kraft and crossover to the adult side ofmac and cheese. Another devine dish.

TOP PICK

Teenage Mutant Ninja TurtlesRATING : BMaster Shreader comes alive again in an action packed kid entertaining movie. We were not as thrilled to see this one because the turtles weren’t quite what we were expecting. But, suprisingly this movie kept our attention along with our 3 year olds. A good movie for the family, if your looking for action, drama and comedy in a nut shell or turtle shell.

Guardians of the GalaxyRATING : AComing in as the hightest grossing domestic movie of 2014 this movie has a little bit of everything. Love, action, fun loving friendships between a tree and a racoon, hottness and i’m not talking about those space ship thrusters, and a decent plot. Make sure to catch this one on dvd if you didn’t get to see it in theatres.
