Ben and I hit up The Club Car for dinner Saturday night. We figured that we would start off our honeymoon with a "fancy" dinner...
We started with cocktails - Ben had a side car, I had my usual bourbon and seven - followed by a braised rabbit loin appetizer. We decided to have salads, a mixed greens salad and a baby arugula salad... they were huge for starter salads! Ben chose the dry-aged center cut sirloin (mixed peppercorns, grilled Pinot Noir reduction, smoked portobello mushroom, savoyard potato) for his main course, where I chose the house favorite, roast rack of Colorado Lamb (fresh herbs, honey mustard glaze, minted Madeira sauce) - both came with fresh veggies. Our server, Bob (who really looked like he could be Ben's boss' brother...) knew what he was doing and really seemed like he had been working there for quite some time. We also had a lovely red wine with dinner, although I don't recall what exactly it was we had (Ben would need to chime in here...)
We had originally landed on The Club Car for dinner that night because we saw they had live piano at the bar. By the time we finished dinner, the bar was PACKED, so we decided not to stay, but we definitely got a taste of the piano (and a few local drunks.) All-in-all, we had a nice time and the food was fantastic.
Happy Honeymooning!
