    Whether its the Polpette or the Alfredo, I always leave with a smile on my face, money in my wallet and the ability to walk, rather than waddle, home. Its all greatly appreciated.

    Mashed potatoes with pesto to start. Bread pudding to finish the meal. Both wonderful for sharing if you must.

    The lemon pie cooler cocktail is so refreshing and great on a hot day.
