Had to go to Laconia late this afternoon, and decided to eat out as neither my wife or I were going to feel like cooking once we got home. As we were going to be driving right past the Lyon's Den, we decided to stop and have supper there. As usual, no disappointment here.
I sampled a micro brewery stout, whose name escapes me, but I was surprised by the list of micro suds...not huge, but intriguing.
My wife and I both started with a cup of soup, which was a corn chowder with italian sausage...could have made a meal out of it by itself. She had Chicken Nicole, a chicken breast with artichoke hearts and mushrooms, roasted red potatoes, and some of those orange thingees (she hates carrots, but these were glazed and she actually ate half of them
...surprise, surprise, surprise!) I would like to tell you how the chicken was, but all I got off her plate was one mushroom (don't touch the chicken or artichokes) and a couple pieces of potato.
I on the other hand went for the Tenderloin Tips Teriyaki, cooked to perfection, good sized serving, with rice pilaf and glazed carrots. As the waiter took the plate when I was done, I said it wasn't very good, I could even finish it...of course it was empty, and because there were some other diners there, I couldn't with good concience like the plate clean.
Of course it was excellent. Felt like I was on a roll, so I had the chocolate bomb for dessert, which was chocolate cake, with chocolate mousse on top, rolled in chocolate sliver type chips, and I think with a chocolate sauce, and vanilla ice cream next to it.
Not wanting to leave without meeting Lauren (Neural721 here on the forum), I asked the waiter to let her know the UTS was there, and she graciously came over and spoke with Jane & I. Nice talking to you Lauren, continued good luck with restaurant, and can't wait to get the boat in the water, docked at Smith's cove, within easy walking distance of the restaurant. See you again, and I hope soon.
