The reason that I love this restaurant is that the menu always changes; it is a seasonal restaurant so whatever is in season is what is on the menu. If they can't get it fresh they replace that option on the menu with one they can. Also, a lot of their produce is organic, and sustainable agricultural products. They even try to be as Earth friendly as possible, by using Wind Power and donating their used cooking oil to the St. Louis Bio-Diesel Club.
And dinner was Awesome! I loved it!
For our appetizer, we both had Steve's Caesar Salad with shaved Wisconsin Parmeasan and homemade Garlic-Parmesan Croutons.
For the entree, Matthew had the Char-Grilled Marinated Hanger Steak with Salemville Amish Blue Cheese Mashed Potatoes, creamed Spinach, and their homemade steak sauce. The flavor on that steak was amazing! And we have got to figure out how to make those mashed potatoes!
I had the Sou-Vide Beef Tenderloin Fillet with Sweet Potatoes, Shiitake Mushrooms, and Sugar Snap Peas in a Lemon-grass broth. It was the first time I have eaten something that was cooked Sou-Vide style and have never had beef that tender before. It was actually off of their Spa Menu, which means that it was not only healthy but low in fat.
For dessert, Matthew had the bread pudding and I had their Triple Chocolate dessert; chocolate creme brulee, flour-less chocolate cake, and a homemade mocha chocolate chip ice cream. (Hey, I was good during dinner... I don't have to be good during dessert!)
I just can not get over how wonderful that dinner was. If you are ever in St. Louis, you have got to go to this restaurant!
The only downside to this place is the women's restroom is kinda gross. It was clean and all, don't get me wrong, but it was... old and not what I was expecting from this level of restaurant.
