April 27, 2012. Rosie Has A Most Excellent Meal. Whoo Hooo!

 Today is our fourteenth day on the road
and I'm getting ready to have the best meal yet.
At the Red Lodge Cafe in Red Lodge, Montana.

Anyone out there know what this is?
It was served with a wonderful Ranch dressing with sriracha dip.

Take a good look.
I've never had this before,
but I swore if I ever saw it on a menu
I'd order it.

It was in the appetizer section
and they offered 6 but I knew I couldn't eat six plus a meal,
so I asked the waitress could I try one.
She and her husband are the owners
and he's the chef,
so after consulting with hubby
 she came back and said yes!

I ordered the steak, rare.

Mr. Hawthorne got the ground beef steak burger
with perfectly steamed veggies.
Fresh veggies!
Not frozen.
He had to admit this was the best he'd had so far.

I ordered a steak.
Rare.

I've never had a sirloin this tender and flavorful.
It was as tender as filet
only better.
Excellent flavor.

Our waitress explained that her husband only orders
top-end meat.
It is obvious.

 Still don't know?

Here's the ticket.
See if you can figger it out.


And no, it doesn't taste like chicken.
Tender, lightly fried.
Delicate flavor.
Ranch dressing with sriracha for a dip.

I don't have to strap 'em on anymore.
I can just eat them now!


If you're ever in Red Lodge, Montana,
this is the place to go to.

The service is great
and the people are about the friendliest I've met.

Well, now I know how much ONE BALL is worth. And $1 seems about right ; )

Was it a leftie or a rightie?

What's a full order called? A rack?

Don't think I'd like this variety of oyster, but impressed that you tried it. You go girl!
Did Mr H sample any?

You guys are cracking me up.

And no. Mr. H. didn't/wouldn't partake.
Might be a "guy thing."

I must admit, it was quite tasty, or should I say "testy." I'll be looking for more on the menus now.
I like to watch Mr. Hawthorne cringe.

Looks like Mr Hawthorne got the special sauce on his beef steak patty
