We started the day at Blenheim, after we strapped ourselves into the bunad. I had been looking forward to Blenheim, however I was very disappointed. The service was awful, the food was not great and they had strayed from their “from farm to table” philosophy. A shame, really, because I really liked Blenheim. After Blenheim,…
We decided to take it rather slow today. Graduation photo shoot in the morning, some shopping and walking and then a late lunch at Charlie Bird. I always thought the menu was kinda funky, and today was no exception. But I am so glad we went here! The wine list is good, but there is…
