Stepping Out Without The Westies

 Saturday night we stepped out without the westies

to a relatively new restaurant in Royal Oak called 

T at the General Store.  It took some convincing

of the husband before he agreed to give it a try.

 This restaurant is what I would classify as a

neighborhood gem!

 We started with a glass of red wine ... which is

so typical of us ... but they did offer some interesting

cocktails on the drink menu that may warrant

a try next time around.

 For our first course we both ordered a bowl

of tomato Parmesan soup with some warm crusty bread.

 Wilson ordered the pork chop and was totally impressed

with the cooking and taste.  He said this was the best pork chop

ever and for my husband to make a comment like this

 is few and far between ... We will be going back for sure!

 I decided on the tea rubbed chicken breat.  It was moist and

tender and I ate the entire thing which is unusual for me.

 Wilson had poppy seed cheesecake and I had brownies with

ice cream.  I liked his cheesecake better but needless to say

there wasn't a crumb of anything left on our dessert plates.

Overall we truly liked this restaurant a lot.

Our next visit will be for lunch sooner rather than later.

Now it's time to get back to work on my new quilt layout.
