@ehBeth,
Lunch at one of the nicer restaurants here, which I won't name so I can complain a bit - Diane's roasted artichoke was not very good, as artichokes go, and my burger was cooked the way I wanted it (thus good quality meat for around here) but rather dry (hey, burgers need fat in them). On the other hand, the accompanying fries (best in years) and sauteed sweet red pepper and mushrooms were good. My glass of malbec was tasty; she didn't mention her white wine. Didn't beat our top three places, but fun to try out. May give it a second chance. Liked the layout of the place, the real paintings on the walls, and the wait staff.
