Diner Reviews
We dined at River Stone Chophouse
on 6 March 2014 and had a delightful experience! We started with a half dozen of raw Blue Points, which are served with the usual accoutrements and water crackers. My entree consisted of crab cakes, which were delicious and had no fillers, but I was not a fan of the mustard tartar sauce (too sharp). Smashed potatoes were wonderful and buttery (the a la carte side portions are large). Order the flourless torte dish for dessert, which is like 3 desserts in one (torte, gelato, and mousse). Requests for specific seating are sometimes accommodated - I recommend the center pod seating facing the fireplace if you are out for a special night. Thank you River Stone Chophouse!"

Wonderful meal with great Service.
Thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience."

Absolutely wonderful! The service
was impeccable, and the food was outstanding. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion, or just as a nice place to get away to and be treated with quality service."
Dined on 3/1/2014
This was our first time at River
Stone, via gift card. We were cheerfully greeted, sat at wonderful seat for two, informed of the choices of entrees, drinks, etc. What we enjoyed most was the attentiveness of staff, and the no rush feeling. However, we must say Hope was very knowledgeable and fun. The Amaretto cheesecake was to die for! Thank you bakery chef for making! Lastly, we will definely be back and refer you to others. Thank you for our dining enjoyment."

THE best dining experience, EVER!
From the server to the chef, to the interaction with the General Manager. Great display of teamwork."

Signature ribeye steak was not as
great a cut as I expected -- nothing specific, just wasn't impressed, particularly for the price."
Dined on 3/1/2014
This was our first visit to the
River Stone Chophouse, and can assure you there will be more visits in the future. The food was outstanding, prepared perfectly and presented beautifully. I can't say enough about the wait staff. Our waiter (David) greeted us by name, explained everything with knowledgeable detail, and attended to our every need. Although he was busy tended to others, we never felt our needs weren't tended to. We will definitely visit again."

the restaurant a nice romantic place for a couple or friends to relax and enjoy the meal"
Dined on 3/1/2014
River Stone is wonderful. My wife
and I celebrated our 20 year anniversary here and it was great. The food is spectacular and the service is beyond exceptional. It is everything you would expect from a high end restaurant without the national chain feel. Why go to a national chain steak house when you can go to River Stone."
Dined on 2/26/2014
Started out a little rocky, but
mad a major comeback! Had reservations for 8, but did not get seated until around 830. After we were seated though; the evening turned into a gem! The waiter and the hostess were attentive, and the food was outstanding! We asked the waiter for his opinion on wine pairing and he was spot on with his recommendation. My wife who does not drink often, was even impressed with the taste of the food with the wine. Overall great night out and fabulous service."
Dined on 2/22/2014
We were dissapointed - had
expected an exceptional meal and got a mediocre one. I've truly had tastier and more tender ribeyes at Outback - and that's supposed to be your signature steak. By the way I had it medium rare so the diminished taste and tenderness was not due to overcooking. My husband's seafood brochette was fine but not great. The little hors d' oeuvres that we were given as a complimentary treat were quite tasty as was the bread which we were served - but we would have loved to be offered a couple more pieces of bread. The sides were as expected - hard to mess up a caesar salad and a baked potato! The dessert was tasty."
Dined on 2/22/2014
This has been our favorite place
for special occasions, however it seems there is a difference in the food since our last visit. I would say it wasn't noteable. For the prices, the food should be exceptional. Will consider another favorite place."
Dined on 2/14/2014
We went to the Chophouse for
Valentine's Day. Initially, Charlie, referred to us as Mr. and Mrs. Stallings. I thought, that's cool they call you by name from the reservation. But, that was not the case. Apparently, we looked liked someone else. So, I corrected him. But on three other occasions, he still kept referring to us as the Stallings. We both had steaks and they were average at best. I had the ribeye. 22 oz., it was not!!! I wanted it prepared medium-rare. The waiter suggested that they do it "Pittsburgh" style. I went along and do not suggest you do this. Very charred and the charred taste became very unpleasant after about 5-6 bites. I am from Nebraska and know well what a great steakhouse is....this is not!!!"

My husband and I enjoy the food
and atmosphere at the Chop House restaurant . We frequent it very regularly . Their menu is very appealing to all appetites."

I took my husband here for his
birthday and we both loved the restaurant. Great food, but most of all EXCELLENT service. Our waitor, Thomas, was by far one of the best waitors I have ever had. He was attentive, and very knowledgible of the food/drink selections of the restaurant. I would come back any day!!"
Dined on 2/3/2014
This was our first visit to dine
at Riverstone and it was amazing. We had visited before regarding options for our wedding reception but, we didn't dine that evening. I thought it would be a great place to surprise my husband for his birthday and for sure the overall service and food made him speechless. Especially, by him being a chef! We will be returning!"
Dined on 2/1/2014
First visit to the Chophouse and
it was absolutely delightful! I would not have thought to rate noise level until I saw it listed under rate your experience. Although every table around us was filled, there was no noise to speak of. The ambience was excellent, we had fireplace behind us. The food was absolutely delicious. Be careful ordering side dishes, because portion are large enough to feed 2 or 3 people. I had the Aged Ribeye and it was cooked to perfection, best steak I've had eating out. My wife had Crab Cake which she thought was wonderful as well. Going back for Suffolk Restaurant week. In order for your experience to be as good as ours, you must ask for Thomas. There can not possibly be a better waiter anywhere!!"
Dined on 2/1/2014
I would be surprised if you could
find a better all around package in the area. The food is as great as you want/hope it to be, and the building itself makes it that much better. The only complaint we had was there was slight draft by the table we were sitting at. We were served some complimentary fried cheese, bacon, pepper balls...they are TO DIE FOR! If this was added to the menu as an appetizer, I would go back just for them!"
Dined on 2/1/2014
Great food and service. We had a
reservation, but we were not seated until 30 minutes after our reservation. That was a problem"

Great wine and beer list. Beautiful restaurant. Reservation recommended, otherwise there may be a wait. You can dress it up or dress down (to a certain extent-business casual)."
Dined on 1/18/2014
My husband were given a gift card
for the River Stone Chophouse and decided to use it for our anniversary. We were very impressed with the service, the beautiful decor and the entire atmosphere in the restaurant. It was a cold, January night and there was a big fireplace with nice fire burning. The menu selections were good, from appetizers to salads, to entrees and side dishes. They had 2 specials that came with side dishes but all the entrees on the menu were ala carte. Entrees range in price from $30 - $50 and include seafood, chicken, duck and beef. We don't mind paying more for exceptional food, but this just wasn't exceptional food. It was good, but not good enough to support the prices."
Dined on 1/25/2014
Our visit was for a family get
together, and we all enjoyed our food and wine, the service, and ambiance of the restaurant. This is a great restaurant for a special occasion or quiet dinner out."
Dined on 1/24/2014
The food was really great. The
room was cold that night but the outside temperature was very cold. Our waitress was knowledgable but I felt the service was very slow. If I had somewhere else to be that night I am not sure I would have made it. This was my first time and would like to return but would know to allow at least 3 hours for dinner."
Dined on 1/18/2014
Arrived right at 11:30 for brunch
and we were seated shortly thereafter. My wife and I have eaten there several times and we brought two neighbor couples who were "newbies". Our server Dave didn't rush us and when we were ready to order, he was there. Two of us enjoyed the Bloody Mary Bar, which was great, and the rest had cappuccino, tea, or soda. All in all, only a few minor somewhat negative comments... The cappuccinos and tea weren't really hot, Dave forgot to bring the requested milk for the tea until it was all but gone, and some of the food, although warm, seemed like it may have sat at the pass for a while waiting for the rest of the table. Food was still great and the other couples said they would return, and of course so will we."
Dined on 1/19/2014
Overpriced for the food that was

Girlfriend and I had dinner at
River Stone Chophouse for a special occasion. It was pretty slow customer-wise as we got there relatively early, but by the time we left the dining room had filled up completely. The attention to detail and service was absolutely fantastic. We felt very special and all of our questions regarding the food and what to order were nicely answered and with plenty of detail. The darker, somewhat rustic, and quiet ambiance made for a very romatic feel. The food was very good and we enjoyed our meal very much so. We will definitely make a visit in the future, though likely only for another special occasion as River Stone Chophouse is expensive. But with the food, ambiance, and service that you get, it's worth it."

Our second visit vs. 6 months
earlier -- we expected another steller performance. We were warmly greeted and escorted to our reserved table. Ambience did not disappoint -- and sets this restaurant apart. Surprisingly, overall our meal was average at best. Crab dip appetizer was watery and lacked taste. New York strip was not impressive -- very tough in texture. Our lobster was overcooked and rubbery in texture. Our dining experience was saved by the bib lettuce salad which was a home run. Service was also off the mark -- on the level you would receive from a far less expensive restaurant. Our wine was stored away from our table to remain chilled -- not a problem except there were long pauses when our glasses were not filled."

wife and I were celebrating our
31st wedding anniversary, had seen this restaurant a few times and had always wondered about it. I figured it might be a good place to celebrate an anniversary or anything else for that matter. we both had a great time, the food was great as was the service. Thomas was our waiter, he was excellent and was very knowledgeable about the food choices and the history of the steaks they offered. they also had a great pumpkin bread dessert that reminded me of the pumpkin bread my grandma from Pennsylvania used to make. Overall we had a great experience, would recommend them to anyone and will also return. thank you for reading, robert"

My wife and I along with a few
friends went here for dinner on NYE. It was not my first visit but just as always the food and service was five star. The NY strip was juicy and tender. Cooked to perfection. My wife had the jumbo fried shrimp platter and those were some of the biggest shrimp I've ever seen. Another guest got the crab cakes and she raved over them all evening. Desserts were the creme brûlée, the flour less chocolate torte and the apple puffed pastry gratin. All superb. All in all, an excellent NYE dinner with great service. We will definitely be back!"

We are in the area visiting family
and was looking for a superb dining experience to bring in the new year. Well we found it. The restaurant was just across the street from our hotel, is beautiful inside and out, has the most romantic ambiance, and the food and drinks were superb. I had the shrimp and hubby had the KC steak. Both were delicious and plentiful (something you don't always find at upscale restaurants). I very much enjoyed the berry martini and a mojito or 2. Although we didn't have wine, we were impressed with the choices. We also shared the apple tart and cinnamon gelato which was an excellent way to end our dining experience. We will definitely be back as there are quite a few other entrees to try."

Excellent cuts of meat and a very
extensive wine list. Our waiter was also a sommelier and was very courteous. My only concern about the staff was very minor, but when we arrived approximately 15 minutes early the young lady basically said because your reservations are at 6 you need to wait in the bar area. I believe she could have handled that response a little more courteous."

Since moving to Virginia, this has
been our favorite spot. Before this most recent visit, we had a less than memorable experience, but we wanted to give it one more try. We are so glad we did. Everything was as good as our first visit! Their customer service was fantastic, and they continue to have an impressive wine list. Our steaks were cooked to perfection and our creme brûlée dessert was perfection. We were greatly impressed that the maitre d' communicated with the server that it was our anniversary and we were pleasantly surprised by two glasses of champagne to acknowledge our celebration. We are so glad that we returned to River Stone because it's definitely back on our list of favorites!"

More News From WRVO
Senator Clinton could face trouble in the fall if challenged by anti-war candidate.
By Chris Ulanowski
Oswego, NY – U-S Senator Hillary Clinton has a lock on the State Democratic Party nomination as the New York Democrat seeks re-election this year.
But a new Zogby International poll found that if she were to face a challenge from an anti-war candidate in the fall campaign, she could find herself in a real battle for re-election.
WRVO's Chris Ulanowski spoke to pollster John Zogby about the poll findings.

What the US Airways and American Airlines Merger Means for Travelers
(ABC NEWS) American Airlines and US Airways announced Thursday they will merge their operations and become one airline, called American Airlines. Together, they are the world's largest airlines by passenger traffic.
The new airline will be led by US Airways CEO Doug Parker, while AMR Corp.'s Tom Horton will serve as Chairman of the combined airline's Board of Directors through its first annual meeting of shareholders. Parker will assume the additional position of Chairman of the Board after the first annual meeting of shareholders.
The new American Airlines will be headquartered in Dallas-Fort Worth.
What does the merger mean for travelers? In the short term, little will change on day-to-day business. Longer term will likely be a different story.
Short term changes:
In the short-term, travelers will see virtually no changes from either airline. The merger still faces regulatory obstacles and must be approved by the Department of Transportation and the Justice Department. If and when it passes that scrutiny, the process of merging the two airlines' operations will begin.
If you're holding a ticket on US Airways or American Airlines, that ticket will still be valid on the airline you planned to fly, on the day and time you planned to fly it.
When you get to the airport, you will head to the same airline check-in counter by which your ticket was issued.
The only possible exception is if you are holding a ticket for many months out and your airline's schedule changes as a result of the merger of flight schedules. In this case, you will be contacted by the airline ahead of time, typically to the email address you provided when the ticket was purchased.
Members of either airline's frequent flier programs need not worry: Your miles are still valid on your airline and it's very unlikely you'll lose miles or elite status. American and US Air will merge frequent flier programs. The new American Airlines will be part of the oneworld Alliance. US Airways will leave the Star Alliance.
Long term changes:
Longer term, the merger could mean higher prices. The U.S., in the last decade, has gone from six legacy carriers (Delta, Northwest, United, Continental, American and US Air) to four (Delta, United, American and US Airways).
If this merger is approved, just three legacy carriers will remain.
Certainly, the higher fares can't all be attributed to consolidation in the industry (fuel costs, a reduction in available seats and the economy all factor in) but in general, less competition means higher prices.
Higher airfare tends to hit smaller cities harder than larger cities, again, because smaller cities and airports have less competition.
On the up side, the merger will also mean more destinations for the new American Airlines. US Airways passengers will benefit from American's international routes, particularly in Europe and Latin America. American will be able to access the smaller U.S. cities where US Airways has a large presence. So for example, a US Airways flier who travels abroad from time to time will now be able to earn meaningful miles on those trips.
American Airlines has hubs and or a significant presence in Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago, New York, Miami and Los Angeles while US Airways has key operations in Phoenix, Philadelphia and Charlotte, N.C. A merger may force the new airline to reduce operations at one or more of these hubs.
American Airlines and USAirways Merger Announcement Likely Tomorrow
They've been dating for a year, and now it looks as though the marriage of American Airlines and USAirways will be announced tomorrow, according to a source close to the negotiations.
The source tells ABC News that details of the merger agreement have been worked out.
The two airlines' Boards of Directors have approved the deal Wednesday evening, according to a source close to the negotiations.
If the two carriers merge, they are expected to retain the American Airlines name. The new airline would become the largest in the world.
Any deal is still subject to approval of the bankruptcy judge overseeing American Airline's bankruptcy, as well as the anti-trust division of the Department of Justice. Both are expected to sign off on the agreement.
This would be the third mega airline merger in the past five years. Delta and Northwest announced a merger in 2008, followed by United and Continental in 2010. The industry consolidation would leave four major carriers operating in the U.S., American, Delta, United, and low-coast carrier Southwest.
For travelers, nothing will change immediately.
These complicated mergers can take more than a year to accomplish. Will this ultimately mean higher fares for travelers?
Some analysts believe fares won't be greatly impacted, because American and USAirways don't compete now on many of their routes.
But ABC News Travel and Lifestyle Editor Genevieve Shaw Brown says less competition among airlines generally means higher prices for consumers.
Rick Seaney, CEO of FareCompare.com agrees, telling ABC News that a merger "guarantees these two airlines will never compete in the future, and competition is the main driver of cheaper airline ticket prices."
One thing travelers won't have to worry about is their coveted frequent flyer miles. The airlines will merge their two frequent flyer programs, and the larger route system will give passengers more opportunity to earn those miles.
Airline mergers can be messy affairs.
Brown notes that when United and Continental merged there were major computer glitches that virtually shut down their systems.
The biggest problem with most mergers, though, is consolidating employees and employee contracts. In this case, deals have already been worked out with pilots, flight attendants and mechanics, which will help ensure smoother sailing when and if the airlines combine.

Elena Sagmayao is from the Philippines. She shares her story and hopes for poor families like hers.
"The rooster crows and awakens me from a deep sleep where I am dreaming about holding my baby for the first time. I notice that my feet are still very swollen this morning, even more so than yesterday. Then the headache hits me again!
I work all day. My body seems to be so heavy that I can hardly move it. I think to myself I should go to the midwife for a check-up. I quickly dispel the thought, for I can't bear to walk half a day to the clinic. I feel out of breath when I walk from the house to the well.
One of the ladies comes to me to tell me that there is a midwife at the highway, passing by from the neighbouring village. She tells me I should go get a free check-up from her.
The midwife takes my blood pressure. And then looks at my face in shock. She takes it again. Then she asks me if I am having headaches and dizziness. I answer in the affirmative. She presses into my swollen legs and her fingers leave a big mark. She looks worried and then asks if I have difficulty breathing. I start to feel very nervous, as I again answer in the affirmative.
She tells me that my blood pressure is very high and that I might have something called pre-eclampsia. She also tells me to go to the hospital with her immediately, as any delay could kill both me and my baby.
I find my husband and tell him about my pre-eclampsia. He requests the midwife to wait and goes off to sell the last two bags of rice to our neighbour.
My husband and I are so worried the whole way to the hospital that we hardly speak to each other. We arrive at the hospital and they take my blood pressure once again. The nurse looks at me with the same worried face as the midwife.
The doctor tells me that I could go into convulsions and die at any moment, and that I needed a cesarean section right away. My husband tells the doctor that we must wait another day, because he has to go and borrow more money for the operation. The doctor reminds us that the longer we wait, the greater is the danger.
The following morning my husband returns with less than half of what we needed for the cesarean section. The doctor says that it will be enough for a down payment and that she can perform the operation.
When I regain consciousness after the surgery, I feel something move beside me, and I hear a little cry. My heart leaps. I open my eyes and look down to my right. There, snuggled beside me, is my baby. She looks just perfect, just like I had dreamed.
I survived. My baby survived. If that midwife had not come out to our remote village, my baby and I may not be here today.
My wish for all mothers is that they would have access to check-ups throughout their pregnancies even if they live in remote villages; that there would be funds available for even poor families like us to receive emergency medical care when they need it."

By: ABC9 News email@example.com
The Sioux City Police Department has offered up some tips on keeping kids safe this Halloween while Trick-Or-Treating. -Make sure your yard is clear of such things as ladders, hoses, flowerpots, pet leashes, etc...-Halloween costumes should be made of fire retardant material and the eye holes should be large enough for good peripheral vision. -A parent or responsible adult should always accompany young children on their neighborhood rounds. -If your older children are going alone, plan and review the route that is acceptable to you. Agree on a specific time when they should return home.-Only go to homes with a porch light on and never enter a home or car for a treat. -Before allowing your children to eat any of the treats, examine them to be sure they are safe to eat. Because pedestrian injuries are the most common injuries to children on Halloween, remind Trick-Or-Treaters:-Stay in a group and communicate where they will be going. - Carry a cell phone for quick communication. -Remain on well -lit streets and always use the sidewalk.-If no sidewalk is available, walk at the far edge of the roadway facing traffic.-Never cut across yards or use alleys.-Only cross the street as a group in established crosswalks. Never cross between parked cars or out driveways.-Don't assume the right of way. Motorists may have trouble seeing Trick-or-Treaters. Just because one car stops, doesn't mean others will. -Law enforcement authorities should be notified immediately of any suspicious or unlawful activity.

text: Reality's a stark place, dominating existence. And I cannot escape it, no matter how hard I try. I believed your name would be forever bound to my lips. Yet the pain of betrayal, tore my fragile heart apart. Love's indomitable flame, was not meant to be extinguished. And its demise frightened me, fueling deep depression. Fate spun a fickle fortune, spiked with ecstasy and pain. And yet time's imbued with the power to resurrect hope. Dreams cannot stray very far, tightly tethered to the heart. And there will come a time when I'll believe in them again.

Willie Davenport was born on June 8, 1943, in Troy, Alabama. He won gold in the 110-meter high hurdles at the 1968 Olympics, and claimed several national championships in that event as well as in the 60-meter hurdles. Named to the 1980 U.S. Olympic bobsled team, Davenport became one of the first two African Americans to compete at the Winter Olympics, as well as only the fourth American to compete in both the Summer and Winter Games. He died in Chicago, Illinois, in 2002.
"There was a myth that blacks couldn't make the Winter Olympics. That inspired me. I think it's important that black Americans get involved in everything our country has to offer. ... If black kids grow up skating, they will be in the Winter Olympics. It just needs exposure."
Early Years
Track and field athlete and military officer Willie D. Davenport was born on June 8, 1943, in Troy, Alabama. After his family moved to Warren, Ohio, he became a star for the Howland High School track team. Despite setting a state record with his time in the 120-meter hurdles as a senior, Davenport did not draw much attention from college track and field programs, and enrolled in the U.S. Army as a paratrooper after graduating in 1961.
Track and Field Stardom
Willie Davenport ran track at local sports club while stationed in Mainz, Germany, from 1961 to 63. Relatively unknown to the track and field community, he pulled off a surprise upset with his victory in the 110-meter high hurdles at the 1964 U.S. Olympic Trials. Unfortunately, he suffered a pulled thigh muscle before the start of competition at the 1964 Olympics in Tokyo, Japan—an injury that led to his early exit in the semifinals.
After earning his discharge from the Army in 1965, Davenport enrolled at Southern University in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He quickly emerged as a standout for the powerhouse track program, winning the national championship in the 110-meter high hurdles from 1965 to '67, and the 60-yard hurdles in '66 and '67.
At the 1968 Olympic Games in Mexico City, Davenport made up for his prior missed opportunity by equaling an Olympic record in the 110-meter high hurdles to win a gold medal. However, his performance was overshadowed by the famous "black power" salute of teammates Tommie Smith and John Carlos on the medal podium for the 200-meter event.
Davenport tied the 110-meter high hurdles world record of 13.2 seconds in July 1969, and notched seven world indoor best marks that year. He also reigned as national champion in the 60-meter hurdles from 1969 to '71, demonstrating an ease in his craft that earned him the nickname "Breeze."
"He would just flow over them like the wind," said John Smith, an Olympic teammate of Davenport's. "He was just that efficient as a hurdler."
Davenport finished a disappointing fourth in the 110-meter high hurdles at the 1972 Olympics in Munich, West Germany. A return to the Olympics for a fourth time seemed unlikely after he ruptured a tendon in his knee at the 1975 AAU outdoor championships, but he bounced back with an impressive bronze medal-winning performance in his signature event at the 1976 Games in Montreal, Canada.
Bobsledding History
Not long after, Davenport and fellow track and field athlete Jeff Gadley were accepted to the U.S. bobsledding team for the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, New York—making them the first African Americans on a Winter Olympic team, and Davenport only the fourth American to compete at both the Summer and Winter Games.

Here's a heavenly hideaway
Published on Wed, Dec 24, 2008 by
Shelley Taylor

Paradise is usually, after all, a faraway place.
Bear with me here while I delve into the literary world, but in Sequim, Paradise is "Far from the Madding Crowd" (novel by Thomas Hardy, 1874). In this instance, "madding" means "frenzied."
And this Paradise is a calm oasis.
And because Paradise is located on the residential end of Sequim Avenue, I'm willing to bet you have passed it by many times - as did I, and never ventured in. But this restaurant has been a Sequim staple for 20 years!
For groups such as the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Knights of Columbus, Kiwanis, bowlers, golfers, and the fire and police departments, it's been a home away from home for a long time.
Right away I knew I'd enjoy eating here because there are plenty of big roomy booths. The decor is restful and tasteful. And the place is spic n' span.
Greg and I went for dinner and we laughed (through our tears) that the music system gently played some of our youthful favorites, The Beatles' "Something in the Way She Moves" and Don McLean's "Starry Starry Night" - now fodder for elevator music! But that's a subject for another day.
First off, I was surprised at the reasonable prices, although you can splurge with fresh lobster and a big prime rib. And once we were served, I was doubly surprised at the very generous portions.
It's been a long, long time since I've seen calf's liver on a menu, so I had to go with that. Greg ordered fettuccini frutta de mare.
Our order was served hot. I love hot. Maybe you think something can be too hot, but look at it this way - it'll have plenty of time to cool down once it's on your table. Usually food is served just-this-side of warm and ends up basically room temp. Greg's pasta was so hot, he had to give it a few minutes. To me, this is nothing to complain about.
Their calf's liver is grilled with bacon and onions. Since liver is a cholesterol extravaganza, I passed on the bacon. Not overcooked, which is easy to do, the portion size of the liver was huge and smothered in onions.
All entrees come with choice of soup or salad, steamed vegetables, choice of rice or baked potato and a nice hot French roll.
My steamed carrots, broccoli and cauliflower were fresh and steamed just right. I substituted the potato for French fries.
Greg's fettuccini came with lots of crab, shrimp, cod, salmon and scallops smothered in velvety cream sauce.
Salad greens were fresh. Greg ordered his with bleu cheese and reported it was filled with nice big chunks. I ordered the homemade Thousand Island. The fried wonton salad croutons were an appetizing novelty.
But I'm getting ahead of myself. We started off with black tiger prawns, which were plump and very fresh and nicely presented. The cocktail sauce had a nice kick to it.
Also on the large and varied menu: veal scallopini, veal Oscar, pork and lamb chops, and chicken in Dijon sauce with mushrooms, green onions, capers and honey Dijon.
Their prime rib, only available on Fridays and Saturdays, is Midwest corn-fed beef. Seafood entrees include pan-fried oysters, prawns, scallops, sole, a 10-ounce rock lobster (a good choice if your wallet is feeling flush), and a captain's plate with deep-fried prawns, cod, calamari and scallops wrapped with bacon and crab meat.
Broiler items include New York and a 16-ounce choice T-bone steak, a petite filet wrapped in bacon, and New York pepper steak with cracked pepper and pepper sauce.
Also on the menu is peasant-style French onion soup and oyster and cioppino stews.
Side orders include vegetables, fries and garlic bread, small portions of their steak entrees, oysters on the half shell and Tahitian prawns that our host James brought to our table to sample. Heaven. Like mini-lobsters with a budget price.
And speaking of our host, considering the menu, you might be surprised to learn that Paradise is a family-run business whose members came from mainland China in 1979.
The original restaurant, Pelegrino, had been closed for a year. In 1989, the restaurant was bought by the Lam family and opened its doors as Paradise on Oct. 2, 1989. Although the entire family works at the restaurant, it is the son James who worked in the restaurant business before and who influenced the continental menu.
I enjoyed the dinner experience so much, I was eager to spread the word and arranged to meet a friend there for lunch. My friend had been hesitant to try it before because apparently word of mouth was that the food wasn't that great. Well, fine, keep a secret! The parking lot was packed.
Lunch was great. I had a wonderful Caesar salad; beautifully presented and everything was fresh, fresh, fresh. My friend ordered their vegetarian delight sandwich with such generous portions of avocado, cream cheese, mushrooms, cucumbers, sprouts and tomatoes that she worried that it was almost impossible to bite into.
Other lunch offerings include a variety of sandwiches: chicken and tuna salad, grilled ham and cheese, corned beef and Swiss cheese, roast beef and Cheddar cheese, a fishwich, Reuben, crab and cheese, clubhouse, French dip and Paradise croissant piled high with bay shrimp salad and a touch of dill. And, of course, hamburgers with all the trimmings.
"Lunch in Paradise" serves up a daily sandwich special for $6.95, a sandwich of the day that includes soup and a beverage for $7.95, and a soup and salad special with roll for $5.95. You can hardly beat that.
Early-bird dinners are served from 11 a.m.-6 p.m. and offer many of the regular entree choices as well as chicken a la Kiev with mornay sauce, country chicken, chicken or fish and chips, and meatloaf.
For dessert, there are apple and pecan pies, chocolate mousse cake and Paradise ice cream pie with vanilla ice cream, macadamia nuts and caramel.
Paradise's reasonably priced wine list includes vintages representing Washington, California, Australia and New Zealand.
The waitstaff is pleasant and attentive.
As an added bonus, spend some time in their relaxed and inviting bar.
If you're looking for a comfortable place to bring in the new year, think about spending it in Paradise.

Far as I'm concerned, you can't beat a good steak.
His steak must be really rough if he feels the need to beat it so much. I'm guessing 8 oz sirloin.

The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again. Oh... people will come Ray. People will most definitely come.

Ooh! We have a rogue cell breaking off between Winterset and Norwalk. May get rain yet!
Yeah TOAST!!!

See lots of lightening and hear thunder.
Had to move the food in off of the grill and finish cooking inside. Sure glad I am married to someone who can tell me when it's time to get inside.
And here comes another round through northern Polk. We've now just tripled our July total here in the last hour. The NWS is also saying there's another chance for rain this weekend ... when's the last time we had two measurable rains within a week???
Checked our rain gauge in west Ames -- it showed almost .8 in. SO excited! But our basement sump pump is dry as a bone. Leaves all over the yard, no branches that I can see. Very strange to have indoor temperature higher than outside in July, but I'll take it.

EPA agreed to propose the rules as part of a court settlement with the Sierra Club and the Defenders of Wildlife, but the agency has received several extensions of its proposal deadline. Most recently, EPA lawyers on April 11 told a federal judge that the rulemaking package, submitted to the White House in January, was still undergoing "interagency review."
On the coal-ash issue, EPA officials had promised the first-ever federal regulations on handling and disposal following the December 2008 collapse of a coal-ash impoundment in Tennessee.
Coal-fired power plants generate more than 130 million tons of various ash wastes every year. The numbers have been increasing as more plants install scrubbers and other equipment to control air pollution, a move that shifts the toxic leftovers from burning coal into ash and other wastes.
In its news release, EPA "announced its intention to align" the coal-ash rule and its new water discharge rule.
"The two rules would apply to many of the same facilities and would work together to reduce pollution associated with coal ash and related wastes," the EPA said. "EPA is seeking comment from the industry and other stakeholders to ensure that both final rules are aligned to reduce pollution efficiently and minimize regulatory burdens."
When it issued a proposal for coal-ash rules in June 2010, EPA did not settle on a specific plan. Instead, the agency sought public comments on one approach that would regulate coal ash as a hazardous waste, with nationwide regulations, oversight and enforcement, and an alternative that would leave actual regulation mostly up to the states.
EPA is apparently doing the same thing in its new water discharge proposal, offering, "variety of options for whether and how these different waste streams should be treated."
"The four preferred options differ in the number of waste streams covered (such as fly ash handling systems, treatment of air pollution control waste and bottom ash), the size of the units controlled and the stringency of the treatment controls to be imposed," the agency said in its news release.

Indian cinema on a mission at Cannes to dispel Bollywood image
Indian movie actors and a new wave of directors are on a mission at the Cannes film festival — to show that their industry, which turns 100 this year, is more than just Bollywood.
The largest Indian contingent to date is on the French Riviera at the world's leading cinema showcase to promote their country, which has the world's biggest film industry, making over 1,000 films a year compared to about 600 in Hollywood.
Movies from Mumbai-based Bollywood and other regional India films have struggled at the global box office, with Indian cinema largely dismissed as lengthy song-and-dance numbers.
But the industry sees the 66th Cannes festival, where India is the "guest country" to mark its centenary, as a chance to showcase a new genre of Indian movies globally and to promote India as a place to both make films and win a massive audience.
"If you use the term Bollywood it really represents the song-and-dance, credibility-stretched story kind of film," director Amit Kumar, whose gangster-cop thriller "Monsoon Shootout" held its premiere at Cannes on Sunday, told Reuters.
"We need to portray Indian cinema as more international and I hope our presence at Cannes will make the world realize that Indian cinema is most than just about Bollywood."
The Indian visitors to Cannes are also keen to lure investment to their film industry, which is forecast to grow to $5 billion by 2014 from $3.2 billion in 2010, according to a report by Ernst & Young.
India's presence has been high-profile since the start of the 12-day festival with acting legend Amitabh Bachchan on the red carpet on opening night to mark his Hollywood debut in Baz Luhrmann's "The Great Gatsby" alongside Leonardo DiCaprio.
Actress Vidya Balan also walked the red carpet in the pouring rain that night as one of nine members of a jury led by U.S. filmmaker Steven Spielberg that will decide the coveted Palme D'Or award for best picture on the final day, May 26.
A gala dinner to mark Indian cinema's centenary was due to be held on Sunday and attended by a list of stars including actresses Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Sonam Kapoor and Freida Pinto.
There is no Indian film in either of the two main competitions at Cannes. The last Indian film selected to vie for the coveted Palme D'Or was "Swaham" in 1994 while "Udaan" competed in Un Certain Regard for emerging filmmakers in 2010.
But four Indian films will be screened: "Monsoon Shootout", another thriller "Ugly", a tribute to the industry centenary called "Bombay Talkies" and love story "Dabba" (Lunchbox).
Anupama Chopra, Bollywood author, columnist and critic, said Bollywood was a tag that independent film-makers had to fight.
"Maybe one day (Indian filmmakers) will break free of the shackles of Bollywood and make a completely global film in terms of aesthetics," he said.
In 2011 India saw a 42 percent jump in the number of Hollywood movies shot there with several Hollywood studios such as Disney, News Corp's Fox, and Sony entering deals with or buying stakes in Indian companies.
There has also been a surge in the number of Hollywood movies released in India, where 3.6 billion film tickets were sold last year. Hollywood studios have been releasing their films in India simultaneously with their North American releases and also dubbing films in various regional Indian languages.
Uma Da Cunha, program adviser at the 2012 Mumbai Film Festival, said studios wanted a slice of the huge Indian market.
"The big and significant change in Cannes is that the Indian film industry is being given space and attention on the international film scene, and it is attracting business and ties from global film interests," she told Reuters.

Sometimes failure can end up tasting pretty good. It certainly was the case with these meatballs.
I'd been aiming to creating an all-purpose meatball suitable for tossing with marinara over spaghetti. Except it didn't quite work out that way.
The meatballs, while delicious, were both too tangy and too sweet to pair with your basic pasta sauce. I tried them in a curry sauce, but that wasn't quite right, either.
Then it hit me: Turn them into party food. And so I ended up with these cocktail meatballs, perfect for setting out with toothpicks for a holiday gathering. And it turned out the sauce couldn't have been simpler – tomatoes and cranberry sauce.
