Good luck, and happy dining!
As for views, you have multiple choices. Once can pick a window seat overlooking the parking lot or if you're lucky enough, snag a window seat overlooking Farwell and catch a glimpse of the buses passing by spewing black smoke. And, let's not forget about the special appeal for those among us who are weight concious. No need to expend the extra energy afterwards using the dynamic duo index & middle when the meal just comes up on it's own. _________________________ For amazing seafood in a very nice, cozy setting..Riverlane Inn-Brown Deer and Pasta Tree on Farwell always comes through.
