There are now three restaurants open and running in full swing. Eddie's Firehouse grill and the King Ko Inn are in King Salmon. D&D is in Naknek. We enjoy going to restaurants and testing the food and rating them. We take into account pretty much the whole experience including the atmosphere, presentation, cleanliness, taste, selection, quantity of food served and of course the service. We are fairly harsh I'd say. Morgiana pretty much drinks like a fish so we decided if she empties her glass before the server comes back to refill it their tip gets diminished. We rate them A, B, C and F.
The restaurants here allow smoking still if you can believe that. YUCK! We detest smoking! King Ko is the worst. We didn't even make it far enough inside for the door to close all the way and vetoed the place. Eddie's is almost as bad, so mostly we go to the D&D. They have pretty good food, the smoke is fairly manageable (most of the time) and the service is really pretty good.
Eden has decided that she loves to come along on these dinner date adventures (as if she really has a say in the matter). She loves gnawing on french fries, followed by choking on and puking them up. She also likes tasting our dinners.
When we sit down the usual request now is waters with a straw, a spoon, and a cracker. What an appetizer, huh? The spoon keeps her occupied till the food gets done, the cracker takes over if she drops the spoon and the straw because she is now adept at drinking through a straw.
It's pretty funny sometimes. Last time she learned what a brain freeze is. The water had a little bit too much ice in it.
We finally visited a highly recommended Mexican restaurant around the corner and I ordered Mole. Brian has been talking about it since before he left since it was created in Puebla, and when he had it on his mission he loved it and ate so much he got sick. I LOVED it and can't wait to have more or take Brian there to see how original it is. Have fun with your one or so restaurants up there. I am glad we aren't the only ones with Alaskan or Texas sized everything!
