Turners vs Rose Plantation
The Admiral has a big b-day coming up-I wanted to go to Bern's via limo-but her frugality kicked in-we both imbed-so its got to be fairly local
looking for objective comparisons--I told her Bern's with limo and the good stuff would be $2K |

Burns with a great dinner and two bottles of good wine and a limo runs about $700 to $800. And I had the driver wait right there for about 2 and 1/2 hours. Been there done that.
And I do know good wine. Got my own cellar with about 800 bottles.

My 2 favorite restaurants in the area. Ambiance I would go with Rose table lines, china etc. They have a private dining room for 2 to 4 people where the chef designs the menu to your palate. The room is beautiful. They have a full bar of liquor and a decent wine list. If their list does not have you want I would think you could bring your own with a corkage fee.
I love the food at Turners. Jack is a fabulous chef. I ate there Saturday night and had the best prime rib I have ever been served. Both places are excellent but if it was my special birthday I would opt for the private room at Rose. |

Have you considered a 4 day cruise? I think you can each bring 2 bottles of wine. |

Corkage
Reasonable corkage and a fabulous wine.

Does Culver's have a corkage fee?

Culvers
Absolutely the most awful food I have ordered in The Villages. It would be great if they had corkage fee. Drink a bottle of wine and then try to eat their food.

I don't believe your Wine-In-A-Box has a cork.

Depending on the significance of the b-day, for us, it would be Berns and must include the 2nd floor . Turners has changed their menu and reviews from friends have been disappointing but that is whispering down the line since I haven't been there since the change. There is always Marks in Ocala if you like great steak and shareable sides.. Rose Plantation is ok and has some nice amenities but while I like their steaks, the sides aren't anything spectacular.

If Chat does the private room the chef will prepare a menu just for them. Everyone I know who has done the private room raved. We were at Bern's last month and I have no desire to return. Crowded and noisy. The best part the dessert room. |

A 21 day cruise for 2k? Was it on the Minnow? A big night out for us is in the $100 range.

Where is Berns? (or is it Burns?)

You have a quick wit, and are funny and smart and probably enormously successful too.
And probably humble. I do like humble.

Culvers
Comparing Culvers to a restaurant with excellent food is odd.
