Hi Nonie,
I wish your Thanksgiving dinner at Lopez would have been a good one. I know what you mean about their reputation for good food.
We returned from TV on the weekend before Thanksgiving, but had we been going out for T'Day, I would probably have picked Lopez, too.
In fact, we were in TV for 3 weeks and during that time, we ate at Lopez 3 times.
The first time was on Veterans' Day. We did not even know that Mr. Boomer was in for a deal. We were just looking for a great steak. The server asked Mr. B. about his military service and because he's a veteran, he got a deal on his dinner. And I guess the free Bananas Foster happens there on steak night anyway.
A few days later, I was suddenly overcome with a need for a really good cheeseburger. I don't know why that happens to me, but every now and then, it does. I was thinking, "Where's the beef?" And then it hit me that there could be a perfect correlation between the steaks served at Lopez and the burgers served at Lopez. And I was right. The cheeseburger was great.
And then, before we left TV, we went back for another steak. I was having some carnivorous good times at Lopez. And all those times, the food was great and the service was perfect.
Sounds like the turkey was a disaster though......
You know, maybe next Thanksgiving the chef at Lopez should give some serious thought to just sculpting a turkey out of beef.
