Sunny Weekend....Patio anyone?

Saturday with a high of 83 degrees, a light wind and no cloud in the sky. A girl couldn't ask for anything more. Unless you asked this girl. She would tell you to add a delicious cocktail that involved lots of ice and refreshing ingredients like cool cucumber and mint.

Everyone is driving with their tops down, or their sun roofs open. We stroll into Smith and Wollensky's in Highland Village on Westhimer Road. Let me start with the positives first, since it is kind of down hill after that. The atmosphere of the Boston based restaurant was open and airy. We sat in the bar area which was practically outside. Our server came to take our drink order soon after our hot rosemary rolls were placed on the table.

Now let's get down to the food, I told the waitress I wanted a cocktail that was refreshing with cucumber and pineapple. She brought me back her rendition of the ever so popular Mojito. Scale of 1-10, I would give it a 7. For lunch I ordered the Blackened Yellowfin Tuna sandwich with sweet onion relish and a mango chili garlic sauce. It left something to be desired after the meal. The sandwich was accompanied by french fries and creamy bland coleslaw. No Bueno.

All in all I would give S&W another try, I would just do without the over priced tuna burger.

Deliciously Yours,
