I’m sorry to hear that. It’s so hard to find a good restaurant that really clicks with you, and then they close.
We had a place that we absolutely loved, and it was our first choice for special-occasion meals. First, it was very small, about eight tables and no public bar. Second, the chef/owner made two entrees, plus their signature chateaubriand was always available for pre-order. That was it, and you had to let them know ahead of time what you’d be having of the two choices, so he didn’t overbuy one thing and underbuy the other.
The service was impeccable. After our first visit, which they asked if it was a special occasion and we told them it was our anniversary, they called us about 10 days before our anniversary the following year and asked if we’d be joining them again. Some might say that was a little pushy, but within that year, we’d already gone for a couple of other occasions, and it was always the chef’s wife who called, and it really felt more like an old friend calling to invite us over. Plus, after every visit, she’d call a few days later and ask how things were with the meal.
We were completely smitten with that place, and got to eat there for about five years before they retired and shut the place down. We were properly despondent for quite a while afterwards. We’d drive by the closed up building and wish we could go, or a birthday would happen and we’d wish we could go there for that. It took us a couple of years to really get over it.
Oddly, though, I find that saying about the farmer kind of comforting. Maybe it implies some sort of stability, idk.
Anyway, I hope that you can find another place nearby, or maybe something just as good will open in its place.
All the countries mentioned are obviously more than the stereotypical symbols in the poem . Sadly, we now associate the word 'gun' with American culture.
n, as they say in the UK. Doesn’t really help anything. But, My opinion is just that. An opinion. I support freedom of speech.
