Food Scene
Fun and Unique experience. Best Ribeye Steak in 500 miles. Reminiscent of the old rough and tumble cowboy camps that yearned for a bit of refinement! Looks like an old log cabin inside and out, with lace table clothes, linens and fine flatware and stemware. Bring your favorite bottle of wine - more than reasonable corking fee. Hosted by Bob Mussellman - a man of direct communication and a surly sense of humor. And a small piece of advice: Don't order the steak "well-done". Please tell him I said Hello!
