Our waitress first brought us a tray of wonderful bread and butter to munch on while we studied the menus, which are made to look like old-fashioned newspapers. Your menu is yours to keep as a souvenir. Lunch options include a wide variety of sandwiches, burgers, and meat entrees. I ordered the grilled salmon, which came with wild rice and a red chile hollandaise sauce. The salmon was great - crisp and flavorful on the outside and moist and juicy inside. The red chile hollandaise was the perfect compliment - creamy and just barely spicy. Once you've finishe your meal, you can enjoy one of several mouthwatering desserts, such as a Rocky Road double-chocolate brownie, Turtle cheesecake, or apple pie with cinnamon rum sauce and.
