The time has gotten away from me, and I haven't done some restaurant reviews that I meant to do. Sadly, since I didn't write it all down as soon the next day, the actual details of our meals escape me. So here are the highlights from two recent ventures out...
1) Bonna Bella Yacht Club. In Savannah, we all know it as the best place to eat on a beautiful Saturday evening given its gorgeous views and great outdoor seating (the fabulousness of the food goes without saying). But here's a tip we recently discovered - it's a great place to eat on a rainy day well. The indoor seating is fresh and new, thanks to rebuilding required after a fire, and with its huge windows is a wonderful place to watch the rain pouring down on the marsh while you're cozy inside eating the best crab stew ever served. Seriously, next time it's pouring rain and you want to get out of the house, try BBYC for lunch or dinner.
2) Ruth's Chris. Wonderful, wonderful to have such a great steakhouse in Savannah...both meals we've had there have been amazing...but seriously, the portions are so huge I felt uncomfortably wasteful. Tip: if you're not getting a steak, get one of their appetizers as your dinner.
And finally, a dinner idea for those willing to venture a little to the north: next time you make a trip to Charleston, take a cooler with you and hit the New York Butcher on Coleman Boulevard in Mt. Pleasant. Buy as many of the chicken parmesan entrees as your cooler will hold, and pop them in your freezer for the easiest and yummiest dinner EVER.
Have a great weekend!
