Park Honored in Top 25 United States Amusement Parks and Water Parks Category for 2013
The Kentucky Horse Park has been chosen as an overall winner in the Top 25 Amusement Parks and Water Parks in the United States category by TripAdvisor in its 2013 Travelers' Choice® awards for attractions. One of the world's largest travel sites, TripAdvisor has established itself as one of the most important for travel information among consumers due to its platform of posting unbiased reviews of real travelers.
This is the first year that Travelers' Choice honors have been presented to attractions. The TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice Attractions awards recognize the world's best landmarks, parks, museums, and amusement and water parks, based on millions of valuable reviews and opinions from travelers around the world on TripAdvisor. TripAdvisor uses a proprietary algorithm that determines rankings based on the quantity, quality and frequency of reviews for any given property.
"We are thrilled to be honored by TripAdvisor as one of the Top 25 Amusement Parks in the United States, and are fully cognizant of the excellent company we are in," said John Nicholson, executive director of the Kentucky Horse Park. "We understand and appreciate that it is not only TripAdvisor but also the reviews of our visitors that have afforded us this honor, and we will strive to continue to be worthy of their esteem and recognition."
"To inspire travelers setting out on summer trips, TripAdvisor has named the top attractions across the globe based on the valuable feedback from millions worldwide," said Barbara Messing, chief marketing officer for TripAdvisor. "Honoring more than 1,200 winners, these remarkable sights offer enriching and entertaining experiences for travelers of all ages."
The Kentucky Horse Park is unique in the Top 25 Amusement Parks and Water Parks category, being the only attraction devoted entirely to the horse. Known as "THE place to get close to horses," there are plenty of opportunities to do so throughout the park. From meeting retired racing greats at the Hall of Champions, to seeing horses of all types and sizes in the Horses of the World Show, taking a ride with draft horses on the Horse Drawn Tour, or petting mares and foals in the Kids Barn, visitors get a personal experience with horses when visiting the park.
Admission to the park includes three different equine museums. The International Museum of the Horse, a Smithsonian Affiliate, explores man's relationship with the horse throughout history. The American Saddlebred Museum & Gift Shop, the "Showplace for Saddlebreds," is the home of Kentucky's first native breed of horse and is exhibiting "The Art of Selling with Saddlebreds: The Show Horse in Vintage Advertising" through January. The Wheeler Museum in the United States Hunter Jumper Association headquarters, exhibits memorabilia from the hunter jumper sport and the Show Jumping Hall of Fame.
In addition, the Kentucky Horse Park hosts equine competitions and breed shows, special breeds weekends and community events throughout the many competition and show facilities located on park grounds, most of which are included with park admission. Events are scheduled nearly every weekend at the park throughout the year, and a full listing of these events and their dates is available at www.KyHorsePark.com.
General admission, including the next day free, is $16 for adults and $8 for children 7-12. Children six and under are always admitted free of charge when accompanied by a paying adult. Admission includes the International Museum of the Horse, a Smithsonian Affiliate, and the American Saddlebred Museum & Gift Shop. Additional activities such as horseback riding, pony rides and tours to area horse farms are available through the park and are offered at an additional fee.

The Fall Classic Hunter Jumper Shows return to the Kentucky Horse Park with the Fall Classic I Hunter Jumper Show, September 7-8, and the Fall Classic II Hunter Jumper Show, September 14-15!
These horses and riders demonstrate athleticism, agility and communication. Spectators will enjoy this challenging competition during the Fall Classic I Hunter Jumper Show in the Covered Arena, Walnut Ring and the Annex Ring. The show will continue with the Fall Classic II Hunter Jumper Show in the Hunter Jumper Complex, Stonelea Ring, Claiborne Ring, and the Murphy Ring.
Sponsored by the Robert Murphy Stables of Lexington, these shows will feature hunter/jumper classes for all ages. Riders from Kentucky and the surrounding region will compete in more than 180 classes ranging from beginner to advance. The shows will feature hunter classes that test the rider's equitation and ability to communicate with their horse.
The jumper competitions will keep the spectators on the edge of their seats, as the horse and rider teams are asked to negotiate a series of high fences as fast as they can. Teams will try to jump the highest jumps with the least amount of errors in the fastest time to be determined the winner.

The 3rd annual Horses and Hope Trail Ride at the Kentucky Horse Park, an event to benefit Horses and Hope, a partnership that Kentucky's First Lady Jane Beshear began with the Kentucky Cancer program in 2008, will be on Saturday, September 14.
How can a Saturday trail ride make a difference in the lives of our equine industry workers and their families? Well, proceeds from the event will go to support breast cancer awareness, referral and treatment services for Kentucky's equine industry workers and their families. Additionally, events are held across Kentucky to honor breast cancer survivors, raise breast cancer awareness among fans, and provide breast cancer education and mammography screening to horse industry workers. More than 600,000 race fans, equine enthusiasts, and horse industry workers have received breast cancer information and services through Horses and Hope.
More than 10 miles of marked trails and open fields are available for the ride. Riders may explore the park by choosing one of two options: Enjoy a "Guided Tour" of the park that highlights scenic, historic, or otherwise special places along the way; or take an "On Your Own Tour" of the park trails, riding anytime between 10:00 am and 2:00 pm. The guided tour groups will depart continually from 11:00 am to 12:30 pm. In addition to the trail ride, the registration fee includes a commemorative Horses and Hope gift, free park admission to access park attractions and a BBQ picnic.
Honors Registration will have a $100 registration fee, and will include a sign posted to honor your designated breast cancer survivor, or in memory of a friend/loved one lost to breast cancer. The additional $35 is a tax-deductible donation.
"Pretty in Pink" prizes will be awarded to the most "pinked out" riders and "pinked out" horses at the event. Get in the spirit and "pink out!"

The Rocky Mountain Horse Association (RMHA) will be holding their 25th annual International Horse Show at the Kentucky Horse Park, September 10-14, in the Covered Arena.
The Rocky Mountain Horse Association was founded in 1986 as a non-profit organization in Kentucky, and is dedicated to the preservation, promotion and breeding of the Rocky Mountain Horse. The Rocky Mountain Horse as a recognized breed is relatively new, but these horses go back more than 70 years to a small farm owned by Sam Tuttle, in Estill County Kentucky, where he developed these horses which had a natural single foot (4-beat gait) for riding at the Natural Bridge State Park. Mr. Tuttle's line of horse descended from a stallion originally from the Rocky Mountains which were bred to Kentucky mares. There are more than 19,000 registered Rocky Mountain Horses in the United States, Canada, Mexico, New Zealand, Australia, and found in several countries throughout Europe.
The Rocky Mountain Horse Stallion Showcase will be from 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm on Friday, September 13, in the Covered Arena. This is a time for stallion owners to promote their stallions, presenting them individually, and spectators to see some of the most beautiful Rocky Mountain Horse stallions. After the Stallion Showcase presentations, there will be an opportunity to meet the stallions face-to-face in the show ring.
The Stallion Row Barn will be open Friday, September 13, from 9:00 am - 9:00 pm, giving stallion owners an additional opportunity for visitors to admire some of the world's finest Rocky Mountain stallions standing side by side. On Stallion Row the many talented stallion handlers will be eager to share their knowledge, display photos and ribbons or trophies of their Rocky Mountain stallions.
Ride A "Rocky" Day is from 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm on Friday and Saturday, September 13 and 14. These rides will be paid for by donation and an excellent opportunity to experience what it is like to ride one of the world's most beloved naturally gaited horse breeds.
Sundy Best, Eastern Kentucky's hottest country music duo, is the perfect fit for the 25th International Rocky Mountain Horse Celebration. The legacy of horses, storytellers and balladeers will come together in an evening of front porch melodies and song lyrics grown out of the rocky topsoil of Eastern Kentucky's Appalachian Mountains, and brought to the Covered Arena Stage at 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm on Friday, September 13.
Admission to this event will be included with park admission. Several local vendors will be set up around the show ring concourse daily. Events for the whole family are planned throughout the week. The show will culminate on Saturday evening with the Grand Championship performance.
Please join us for family fun and entertainment at the Kentucky Horse Park to celebrate the Rocky Mountain Horse Association's International Horse Show. For more information about this event, call (859) 243-0260 or visit the RMHA website at www.rmhorse.com.

Funny Cide, Thoroughbred Champion and Hall of Champions resident, will be off the park August 1-8 for a special trip:
Funny Cide, winner of two legs of Thoroughbred racing's Triple Crown in 2003, the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes, will travel to Saratoga Springs, N.Y. for a special 10th anniversary celebration to mark his victories and the 150th Anniversary of Racing at Saratoga. The only New York-bred to win the Kentucky Derby, Funny Cide returns home to make an appearance at Saratoga Race Course on Sunday, Aug. 4, 2013, for an Equine Retirement Day Salute to Funny Cide.
The day will start with a meet and greet in the paddock with Funny Cide at 11:30 a.m., which will include his trainers, Barclay Tagg and Robin Smullen; and Jack Knowlton, representing his owners, the Sackatoga Stable. The New York Racing Association will be on hand to give out 1,000 Funny Cide posters. Funny Cide's former jockeys, Jose Santos and Richard Migliore, will sign autographs to benefit the Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund. Four New York-based horse retirement organizations will be at the track and will accept donations throughout the day. Later, Funny Cide will lead the post parade for the Vanderbilt at the track, approximately 5-5:45 p.m.
Funny Cide, or "Funny" as he is known at the Kentucky Horse Park's Hall of Champions where he has lived since being retired to the park in 2008, will be away from the park Aug. 1 - 8 for the trip to New York. Funny retired with the highest earnings ever by a New York-bred Thoroughbred at $3,529,412. At the 2003 Kentucky Derby, he was known as "the people's horse" mostly through the story of his owners - a group of former high school buddies who pooled their money to buy the chestnut gelding. He can usually be seen at the Hall of Champions daily throughout the summer at 10:15 a.m., 1:15 p.m. and 3:15 p.m.

Get ready for the Bluegrass Classic Dog Shows, five days of dog showing with approximately 150 breeds represented, to be held inside the air conditioned Alltech Arena at the Kentucky Horse Park, August 29 – September 2! There will be specialty shows for Daschunds, Cardigan Welsh Corgis, Isben Hounds and Scottish Deer Hounds.
The Bluegrass Classic Dog Shows includes AKC purebred dogs as well as All American dogs and classes for both beauty and performance. Every breed has a standard by which each dog is judged when competing and each breed has its own distinctive characteristics. More than 1500 dogs are scheduled to compete and spectators will cheer on their favorite breed in hopes that they win their group and go on to win the Best In Show class, which will conclude each day.
There will be plenty for spectators to do. The "Meet the Breeds" session on Saturday and Sunday provides an opportunity to meet and talk with breeders, owners and trainers, as well as a chance to wander through the grooming areas to see the various dog breeds up close.
A vendor area will be set up to shop for unique pet supplies. Items sold include dog artwork, t-shirts, dog toys, beds, leashes, collars, crates and exercise pens. Many of the items sold will feature different breeds.
Admission is only $5 per vehicle for show admission plus $3 collected at the entrance to the Kentucky Horse Park for parking. Judging will start at 9:00 am on Thursday and at 8:00 am on Friday through Sunday. A dog must be entered in the competition in order to be allowed into the Alltech Arena. Keep in mind that the parking lots are hot and it is against the law to leave a dog in a vehicle, since they could overheat.

We found the script on the screen to be a little lighter on this e-reader than on some competing models and the text was not as sharply defined as it should be. Like other e-ink e-readers, there's some lag when you turn pages and go back and forth between books and the home menu. But it's worth noting that the lag is much more pronounced on this Kobo than on the latest-generation Kindle or Nook e-ink e-readers.
Navigating the device is fairly straightforward–you use a combination of the four-way directional pad (with a center select button) and the four buttons on the side of the device ("Home," "Menu," "Shop," and "Back"). To page forward, you click on the right side of the nav button, and to go back a page, you click the left side (alternatively, you can use the up/down sides of the button).
To put it bluntly, the whole experience feels sluggish compared with the Kindle or the Nook, and it's also worth mentioning that we discovered errors in the e-bookstore when we accessed it from the device. For example, e-books that were marked "free" were priced at 99 cents even though they were indeed free. Also, the store was inaccessible at times when it appeared that our Wi-Fi connection was fine.
To download e-books from the Borders store, you simply download them directly from the device after registering for an account. Alternatively, you can install the Borders desktop app on your Mac or Windows computer, and then "side-load" e-books you've purchased to the device via the USB port. You can also side-load PDF and EPUB files by simply dragging and dropping them onto the Kobo as if it were a storage device. In that regard, this is an "open device" like the Nook and Sony Reader. The big advantage there is the ability to "borrow" e-books from your local library–something you can't do with the Kindle.
You'd think that an e-reader with Wi-Fi would support wireless syncing of your Borders/Kobo library between it and a mobile phone running the Borders or the Kobo app, (Borders and Kobo already have separate apps available for the iPhone, iPad, and Android platforms), but we bought a book via the Borders app on an iPhone and it didn't transfer over to the device. As far as we could tell, there's no way to sync an e-book between the reader and apps on other devices. However, if you subscribe to a newspaper or magazine, new editions will automatically be delivered to the device once you're on a Wi-Fi network.
As far as extras go, unlike some other e-readers, the Kobo doesn't support viewing JPEG and other image files or MP3 audio files. As we said, aside from the built-in Wi-Fi, you get a pretty basic feature set.
In the end, the problem with this e-reader is that while it's OK and is fine to read on (though a little sluggish), competing e-readers like the Kindle and Nook are clearly superior in just about every way. True, you may be able to find the Kobo Wireless eReader for $99 on sale, but you really do get what you pay for. Our advice: pay the extra $40 or $50 for the Kindle or Nook–they're worth it.

I absolutely love my Polar FT40. Exercising before was so dreadful - it was all guess work, and most of the time I would overwork myself, get discouraged, and quit, thinking it was too hard. Now that I have my Polar, I know how hard my body is working and can maximize my time and efforts by not overworking myself. Love, love, love it.

SMF Development > Applied or Declined Requests
Disabling the Forum part of SMF
Ya That's what it is now lol. So there is no plugin or anything then to disable that.
Nope. It's designed to be a forum. If you don't want it to be a forum, you're trying to make it into something it wasn't intended to be.
Now I have thought of building a custom website on an SMF back end, just for fun and because I'm familiar with the coding, but it's really not the most sensible option. You can do it if you really want to though.
If you're not much of a coder, it might make more sense to decide exactly what functionality you require from your site, and then pick the app based on your requirements.
Ok Thank you for the help.
I'll have to look around or use SMF. Thank you
This has got to be one of the most bizarre requests that I have seen...
If you don't want the forum, then don't use a forum software... Use a cms, or blog, or gallery.
In other words, use the right tool for the site that you are building. Yes, you can do lots with SMF, including portals,galleries, blogs, etc... But the forum forms the BASE of the community site.
Arantor Beeblebrox the First:
No, it's not the most bizarre request I've seen, therein lies the point. Why do you think SimpleDesk has a 'shut the forum down' mode? There are very legitimate cases for using SMF to bridge to things but they're specialised, and as stated, if you shut the forum down, what's left? In SD's case, the helpdesk is left (and that has intentions for things like bridging to other systems entirely, hence it makes some kind of sense, plus it's themable)

Chapter 524 has created uncertainty in the law of trusts and estates and has compromised the ability of parties to rely on the law in place at a given time in preparing estate plans, making distributions from trusts, and advising clients with regard to trust administration -- Boston Bar Association Amicus Brief Filed on April 30, 2012
Picture this estate planning nightmare now playing out in Massachusetts:
Mr. Smith established a trust to care for his daughter, Mary. Mary, in turn, had one biological daughter and one adopted daughter. Under the law as it stood when Mr. Smith set up his trust, only Mary's biological daughter would be a beneficiary of Grandpa's trust. That was before 1958, when the term "issue" was used to refer only to biological children.
Long after her father died, Mary turned to an attorney for guidance on how best to compensate for this inequitable situation. She drafted a will leaving her entire estate to her adopted daughter, and nothing to her biological daughter, because her biological daughter would automatically receive an equally generous sum from Mr. Smith's trust.
In 1958, an enlightened Massachusetts Legislature broadened the definition of "issue" to include adopted children as well as biological children. This legislation was not retroactive, however, and Mary was therefore correctly advised that both of her daughters were still provided for equally. Mary later died, secure in the belief that she had arranged for a fair and equal allocation of the family assets between her two daughters.
Fast forward to 2008. The Massachusetts Legislature now passes Chapter 524 of the Acts of 2008 -- amending the definition of "issue" to include adopted children in pre-1958 trusts. What few people realize at the time is that this new law also changes the property rights attached to that definition.
Thanks to Chapter 524, Mary's adopted daughter now has a windfall, receiving the benefits of her mother's entire estate and also a one half interest in Grandpa Smith's trust, which had previously belonged to her sister alone. This is not the outcome Mary intended when she drafted her will.
In a case with similar facts now pending before the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, Rachel A. Bird Anderson v. BNY Mellon, N.A., et al., SJC-11122, the Boston Bar Association has filed an amicus brief urging the Court to clarify estate planning law as it relates to Chapter 524.
As the brief notes, "Families often rely on [established principles of construction] in making irrevocable alternate arrangements, such as gifts or bequests made in favor of adopted children who were (until the effective date of Chapter 524) not beneficiaries of certain family trusts."
The BBA amicus brief urges the SJC to provide answers to two important questions:
Is the retroactive application of Chapter 524 to instruments executed prior to 1958 constitutional?
If so, what are the consequences for actions taken by fiduciaries in reliance on Chapter 524 prior to the SJC's determination that such an application is constitutional?
The answers to both questions are of substantial importance to those concerned with matters of estate planning and trust administration within the Commonwealth.

I am sure this will spur as much debate as an iPhone/Android or Apple/PC discussion. But I am considering getting a new game console. I had an xbox years ago, that I ended up selling and I was a Wii owner for a little while and get disenchanted with that after some time and wanted something, well more grown up (that and I stopped playing it because it just got old).
I am going back and forth with wanting to get another one, as a way to kill time on nights when I just feel like blowing stuff up in a video game and what not. Or have friends over and have something to do during intermissions or half time(s). I am not a hard-core gamer by any means.
Since I got bored with the Wii, I have no desire to get the Kinect or Motion option bundles (although I know the Kinect looks like a whole lot more fun than the motion). Although the Kinect option does look cool because I don't have to hold a controller, or a microphone looking thing to use it. I am leaning towards the Xbox 360 because I loved the Halo franchise and know that a lot of the games go on both platforms. I already have a Blu-Ray player, so that isn't a necessity.
The only thing that scares me with the Xbox 360 is the dreaded red ring of death. I don't want to be forced into buying the warranty on it because at some random time for no apparent reason it's going to decide I want to blow up today and do that. (is that even an issue anymore?)
So what's the pros cons of one over the other?
I always tell people to get the PS3 unless they already have a blu ray player, so if I was you I'd get an X-box since you do have the blu ray even though I myself don't have one.
My brother has an X-box and he hasn't had the ring of death so its probably hit or miss. I've never had any problems with my PS3 nor have I heard of any from anyone else.
And if that doesn't help find a list of games exclusive to both consoles and pick the one that has more games you'd play because the main difference between the two is the exclusives and the blu ray on PS3. Most major titles get released across all platforms but for example if you want Halo you need an X-box and if you want Uncharted you need a PS3.
The Stranger: Sometimes you eat the bar, and sometimes, well, he eats you.
The Big Lebowski
"The man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed."
i think the new generation xbox's dont have the ring of death issue anymore.
I would go xbox personally. the online features/ software seem to be more user friendly..
SI member# 1572
Lions Seats Section 223 Row 5 seats 1-4
What is the difference between the graphics, on the two systems?
"the world will know soon enough if Millen in fact acted alone."
I believe most of the newer 360's (made after 2009 or 2010?) have the RROD problem solved... so don't let that be the deciding factor, IMO
There are some exclusive games to each system so that prolly be the deciding factor. The PS3 does have Blu-Ray capability which can sway some if they don't already have one.
Now that MS has finally fixed the over-heating issues there really isn't much difference between the 2 at all IMO. Although I think 360s are now a little cheaper if you don't get one with all the options.
I think it comes down to how important the online access/features/price is to you... XBL live costs $$ (I think if you look around there deals for $40/year a few times a year, regular price is $60/yr I think?)- but it is without a doubt the better + more feature-packed online experience... While Sony's online stuff doesn't charge extra, but it's pretty basic also.
On the other hand, if baseball is important to you, from most I've read/heard, the Show is a PS3 exclusive title, and I believe most say it's without a doubt the better game (for now at least)
i have heard that comcast made a deal with xbox as well...if so, you may soon be able to stream your cable through it...

Now this is a forecast that -- and company may get right.
The Obama team wants tax hikes now.
Promises of entitlement reform late and we just ignore all the debts that is the fiscal -- deal -- may be shaping up it certainly looks like the fiscal.
Deal of the day.
Joining us now is trick and at the with -- -- capital management and I want an up front you tried you think we got this right is that a kinda deal that you think may emerge.
Sure that's the kind of deal that may emerge but let's remember something here Stewart.
What we need to have we need to have the deadline -- tomorrow.
Because people's behavior is motivated by incentives so how do you -- -- politician more importantly how do you dis incentivize them.
If if the politicians in Washington right now make a deal today they're gonna be viewed as selling out their constituents so what they have to do is they have to do lots of grandstanding.
-- we tried so hard so they're gonna take it to the eleventh hour fifty ninth minute.
At the very end and then say well we had to capitulate on this this area or that area because they don't want to appear like they caved in too early so we're just gonna have to play this waiting game.
And we're just gonna have to have more press conferences and -- an emergency meetings at the White House.
Make the deadline tomorrow and let's get it over what you think a deal will be done.
I'm inclined to think so but right like I said you're not gonna hear anything right now but because politicians have a disincentive.
To compromise now they won't compromise later.
At the last possible moment so we're on -- -- I say tax now promised to cut late ignore all the debt that's -- the deal I think we'll get an.
Are you broadly in agreement with that -- and -- -- definitely have to ignored the debt yeah as long as the Fed acts as a backstop to the bond market the bond market should be punishing our politicians right now in the bond markets not doing it is the -- to backstop that -- -- that just keep on -- all right they trust her good stuff as usual thank -- -- much indeed now this.

ROE grant to area schools
The Bureau Henry Stark Regional Office of Education has been awarded a federal 21st Century Community Learning Center grant to provide extended day programming and extended year programming for area students.
Angie Zarvell, superintendent of the Bureau Henry Stark Regional Office of Education, said the federal grant award provides a total of $999,520 in the first year of the five-year grant. The grant will allow for the creation of eight full-time site coordinators and other new positions as programs at each school are established. Hopefully, site coordinators and some programming plans will be in place by mid-January, Zarvell said.
Schools which will benefit from the grant include Bureau Valley South in Buda, LaMoille's Allen Junior High and High School, Central Junior High School in Kewanee, Wethersfield Junior High and Senior High in Kewanee, Colona Grade School and Galva Elementary, Junior High and Senior High. The amount of grant money for each district will be dependent upon the established programs and also shared programming between districts, Zarvell said.

Great seafood has been sorely lacking in the far north suburbs so this is a great find. The lobster risotto was great. As was the Mahi Mahi. I love a classic lobster bisque. Didn't think the roasted cauliflower added much. Blackberry cheesecake was yummy.
Creative, delicious dishes, attentive service, beautiful evening on the balcony.
My wife and I went here for our anniversary and absolutely loved this restaurant. Our oysters were amazing and our main dishes were both terrific. When the management found out it wa our anniversary they sent over some complimentary champagne for us to enjoy. Overall this was a wonderful dinner and I can not wait to back for another dinner.
What a fantastic choice for dinner with friends. The food was absolutely amazing. We all decided to step out of our comfort zones, and were so happy we did! All of our choices were delicious and well prepared. Our server recomended a new bottle of wine they had just added to their selection, and it could not have been a better pairing. Wonderful food and phenominal service. We will all definitely return!
We took our family and new sailor to dinner here and had a great time. The food, staff and overall experience was terrific. It was exactly what we had wanted.
Outstanding, menu changes as the market does. Have eaten here 3 times, and will go back.
If you want your fish fresh combined with creative and tasty sides this is your destination. Service is attentive. We have now been there 2xs. Best fish in north burbs!
Being the first time their it was absolutely Fantastic. It made our 28th Wedding anniversary Special. The Entrance & the Waitstaff were Great. Our Hostess presented the menu in full & was shocked that she took our order from memory & gave us a bottle of wine that made the meal. The house appetizer of smoked walleye surprised us both. The grilled octopus was the best. The Lobster bisque served by the Presentors with the hot bisque poured @ the table..........shockingly perfect. Main course dinner cooked to perfection. Candy bar dessert capped the evening. We shall be back. Thank You for a wonderful Anniversary.
Fish offerings make this the top restaurant in Lake Foresr
This was our forth visit to MH Fish and we love the healthy preparations and variety of fish on the menu. We were seated when we walked in and the service was outstanding. We had the simply grilled salmon and mahi mahi - both very good. Nice wine choices too.
Great re-due of a old second floor space in prime location in downtown Lake Forest. The overview of Market Square during a summer evening concert was idyllic. Wonderful selection of seafood items all with a nice creative flare. The wine list was unique though not overpriced with an interesting price method of 1/4 bottle price for by the glass of most all featured wines. The crab cakes appetizer were very good as were the ample portions of swordfish and lobster risotto followed by a delicious take on Key Lime pie.
The atmosphere is great. The wedge salad made with Bibb lettuce is outstanding. We enjoyed our fish. The salmon is outstanding as well as the Halibut.
Before I even left my home for dinner, I was pleased with the fact that the manager called to ask my seating preference, as I had requested through Open Table secluded seating. He explained that the restaurant is small, and there is really no secluded seating. He did recommend the outdoor balcony, which is covered, small and has only a few tables. It also has over hear radiant heat, so in the event it cools off you're still able to stay warm. I was very pleased with the seating, and upon arrival, was met by the manager, who introduced himself, whihc made me feel special, and impressed my date. The waitress was outstanding. She knew the menu inside and out. The dinner was good, but not phenomenol. We will definitely go back though.
Small plates: Oxtail macaroni and cheese was delicious. Entrees: Half the table loved their entrees, the other half said they were just okay. The seafood was fresh, and I enjoyed the fish, eventhough I normally don't like fish. (although you can't really go wrong with bacon-infused fish, I guess)
We went for the first and had a delightful dinner. It is a bit pricey but still okay. Very good food, unique, excelllent service and a nice evening. We will go back.
Our halibut, scallops and steak were outstanding. Also fresh oysters. Very professional service. Loved wine by the glass selections. A really nice feature. Expensive but so Great for a Birthday or Special Treat.
What a gem, creative food, warm and wonderful service, smart looking restaurant, Very easy to notice, someone put their heart into this place. Love it!!!!!
This was my first dinner at The Fish House and I loved it. We had a beautiful corner table overlooking the square. The decor is elegant and modern, setting just the tone I was looking for. Started with oysters--great selection, delicious. Split the Wedge salad. Unlike any other wedge, very inventive and satisfying. I then had the halibut. I usually shy away from halibut bc I think it will be dry, this was not, very moist. Great wine, great food, great night!
Host and manager, David and waiter, Alex both did a great job. The food was truly excellent and sometimes innovative. The Kumamoto oysters were excellent. The exotic octopus dish was excellent. The king salmon dishes we had at our table were great too. The wine list is very fairly priced and very intelligently composed. Highly recommended.
We have been to a restaurant in this location under previous owners and went back for a birthday celebration. The new owners have done a nice job with the new seafood theme. The dining room is small with many nooks. The food and service were very good but the restaurant is quite noisy in spite of not being very busy the night we were in.
Great menu quite creative and delicious, service is wonderful, a delight place!
This was our second visit to MH Fish House; once again we had a fabulous dining experience. From the impeccable service, to the high quality of the food, this restaurant does not disappoint. Special favorites included tuna tartar, mussels, striped bass, lobster bisque, and the simply grilled salmon. I love the special touches - the salmon tartar that was sent compliments of the chef, and their usual warm rolls with the orange marmelade which is to die for. My daughter casually commented that some fried parsnips looked delicious while passing the kitchen - on her way back she was given a bowl to try. Fine wines are offered by the glass or the bottle. One caveat - be prepared to spend some money; you won't be disappointed.
MH fish house exceeded my expectations. I heard from others that I needed to try out this rew restaurant and they were right. Starting with the complimentary amuse, followed by fresh oysters, crayfish and olive oil poached tuna.......all outstanding. The service was expectational. I will return often.
Great variety of fish, interestingly prepared, attentive service, reasonably priced, free (!!) parking. A little noisy, but not overwhelmingly so.
The attention to detail at MH Fish House was impeccable. We were there to celebrate a special occasion and they were ready to make it even more special. We were immediately met and acknowledged as being there for a birthday, given outstanding treatment and service throughout the evening (they actually read, noted and acted upon the "special requests" box in the Open Table site!). And the meal was as delicious as the service was excellent. The bacon/blue cheese salad was delicious and big enough to share for most. Grilled halibut was perfectly cooked and melted in your mouth, and the special salmon with BBQ blueberry glaze was as good as I have ever had. Dessert was spectacular. Wish i had more space to write, best place around!
This is one of the best restaurants in Lake Forest
Our twins just turned two years old and we have not had a nice night alone in almost as long. Dinner was a continuation of our anniversary celebration. Decor was modern yet cozy (yes, somehow that is possible). Greeted by an ebony hardwood stairwell that opened directly into the heart of the restaurant. White walls with seaside touches and carefully placed lighting made you feel at home. Wine was fabulous. The food was excellent and priced appropriately. Service was excellent but courses were a bit too far apart for us since we only had one night away - hence the 4-star rating (would have been a 5-star rating otherwise). Keep this location in mind for special occasions. I plan to go again...before another 2 years pass.
My husband and I had an excellent date night at MH Fish House. Well-made martinis, a variety of fresh raw oysters, and food that delighted the senses... This place is a foodies dream. We shared 3 small plates: crab cake, crayfish, and Mac n cheese. My mouth is watering remembering how delicious the dishes were. For dessert, we ordered key lime custard which was sublime. The restaurant has lovely decor (cape cod-looking) and the service was spot on. We will be back!!
This was my first time dining at MH Fish House, after dining at Market House several times with great experiences. I came with my parents and boyfriend for my birthday dinner. They made everything so special! The manager - Dave - was very pleasant and wine knowledgeable for any questions we had. Fabian was such a nice and courteous server! He let us take our time with ordering and answered all our questions. The Lobster Bisque and Lobster Risotto were my highlights. I loved the Halibut as well. My family enjoyed the Crab Cake, Swordfish and King Salmon as their entrees. They sent out the Candy Bar dessert with a candle for me, so delicious! I will definitely be coming back soon, and know my parents will as well.
I took my friend out for her birthday here on October 5th (a saturday) and were greeted right away by the owner and manager. We were seated at one of the tables in the main room of the restaurant (one closest to the kitchen, which was neat to be able to watch the chefs as they prepared and plated the food). We were greeted promptly by our server who was very friendly. To drink, we enjoyed french pear martinis. To eat, we shared the lobster risotto and the striped bass with a delicious blueberry sauce, which was so inventive! Nothing on our table was out of place. Everything in the restaurant was simple, and elegant: the waiting staff, dishes, and beautiful tablescape. This is a quiet intimate restaurant, perfect for a special occasion!
We always head to LF for dinner on dates. We were celebrating our 16th wedding anniversary so I thought we would try something new. I mentioned it was our anniversary in my reservation and did they make it special for us. We sat on the screen porch which had glass rather than screens due to the rain. Beautiful and romantic. We were given a glass of champagne to toast before we ordered our dinner and were then we were also given a complementary dessert. The deconstructed Snickers bar. YUM.
We went with friends and had a great dinner...service excellent, amazing oysters.....exceptional fish with creative presentations...a definite return!!!
Excellent food. Excellent service all around. Fabian is the best of the best. When we go again, we'll ask to be at one of his tables.
My husband and I celebrated our anniversary by enjoying an early dinner at MH Fish House. Our evening began with a bottle of wine from a notable list, most available by the glass as well. Our attentive server, Fabian, was very knowledgeable with his recommendations. The food was prepared and presented beautifully. I highly suggest the Octopus and Halibut. My husband really enjoyed his Paella. The chef sent out a few delicious tastings for us to try. I'm still craving more of the smokey salmon mousse, delicious! Our table on the heated patio gave us a great view and some seclusion. We were even presented with an extra treat for our anniversary. We will surely return!
I love the decor of MH Fish House; the menu is interesting to read the Halibut sounded more interesting than it was, but it was still a beautiful presentation salad excellent (soft lettuce wedge) Service personal and attentive sitting on the porch is one of the nicest ways to dine only negative is that on this night the smell of the wood grill- don't know if it was mesquite or what type of wood- was over powering when we walked in
Excellent fresh seafood. Oysters were fabulous and server was very knowledgeable. Sat out on the Porch which was comfortable even while 40 degrees outside. Nice view if the square. Salmon and halibut were both done to perfection.
Always Great Food and Service, I enjoy this location for Business dinners sinces it Queit, Great Food and Great service.
Thought it was strange how they cleared bread plates Without asking if you wanted another piece.
Birthday celebration for my husband, we had a late reservation so felt like we had the whole restaurant to ourselves. Everything was perfect AND we didn't have to drive to the city!!!!
MH Fish House is an excellent find in Lake Forest and a rare fine dining seafood specialty restaurant for the area. The theme of "sea to table" and seasonality are taken seriously. The server was very knowledgable and service great. Oysters on the half shell don't take a lot of prep--they just need to be fresh and shucked nicely. And the oysters at FH were fresh, without any shards of shell--so a very good start. The bacon-cured sturgeon is unique and recommended; and the halibut was also a very good choice. Both entrees were nicely sized, and the prep perfect. Presentation of all courses was also done very well. Everything, from start to finsh, was very focused. Great job and thanks for a very nice evening!
This restaurant continues to delight. Most fish are available in sauced versions and in plain grilled fashion. Bothe choices are uniformly delicious.
They do not rush you so the meal is relaxing and enjoyable
We had a great experience dining at this restaurant. Food, service and atmosphere were perfect. We sat on the covered porch which is more intimate.
It was our first visit and we were impressed! Our service was exceptional and our food was as well. We greatly enjoyed every bite of our outstanding dinners. For the two of us it was very nice to eat on the fully enclosed and heated porch area with a nice view of Market Square. The main dining room is beautiful and we Iook forward to returning again soon to try some other offerings.
What a great find in the Northshore for fine dining. The food was fabulous and exceeded our expectations. I had the Wild Alaskan Cod which was so fresh and beautifully prepared. Our server knew both the wine and food menu and was able to guide us to the most delicous oysters, entrees and wine. We will be back often.
We used to loving coming to the earlier incarnation of this spot when it was Bank Lane Bistro, and this was our first visit since it's been been transformed to MH Fish House. We were thrilled to see that it's just as special as ever. The food was exceptional. We had baby scallops and crab cakes as appetizers, and the lobster risotto (particularly outstanding) and striped bass as entrees. And the service--including David the maitre d and the waitstaff--could not have been more attentive. I'd let them know that we were celebrating my wife's birthday when I made the reservation on Open Table, and they really went out of their way to make our visit--and her experience--a special event.
Wow! Back again and continue to be impressed. The oysters are always delightful, lots of variety. I had the dover sole and think it was well worth the price. Great service and atmosphere. Not exactly kid friendly, but perfect for date nights and visitors from out of town. Looking forward to my next visit!
Absolutely top drawer in every way! This was our second visit. Atmosphere is superb - a warm, casual elegance. Food is prepared and presented perfectly. Service is impeccable! The menu has something for everyone, and yet it's really cohesive. I expected good things based on a super first visit, and they actually exceeded my expectations. I decided that on this visit I would stretch my palette. I'm fine with octopus, but it's not something I usually seek out. I had the small plate octopus, and I was blown away. Done with Mid-Eastern flavors, it was the tastiest, most tender octopus I've ever had! Perfect scores on everything - food, service, and ambiance - make this place a slam dunk!
MH Fish house has a nice ambiance, good service and very good food. Lots of healthy choices. Pricey
We sat outside on the patio which is enclosed in glass and heated- beautiful. Food and drinks were outstanding. Loved the oysters- best you can find, and the NOLA shrimp was great also. Scallops were too sweet for my preference but uniquely paired with shaved fennel possibly. We only had small plates and will try main courses next time.

Just what I wanted
By JV
from Cape Cod, MA
I thought I knew what I wanted but your call center helped me by presenting various options for me online. Some I wouldn't have considered...in all price ranges and different styles. I got more than I wanted at a price that I was comfortable with. Delivery was prompt. And my husband installed quickly. The "no cord" retraction works perfectly. Even my husband loves the blind.
these are great buys
By horsechick
from tehachapi CA
put on all my windows in my mountain cabin. light beige matcheds the wood. easy to install my word! and I have installed a lot of blinds over the years.they look great, are easy to put up and down, and good quality especially for the great price. don't hesititate to get these. you won't be sorry they also go way up and are almost invisible during the day so I have the whole window for light!!!
Nice quality cellular shades
By Calico
from Long Beach CA
We used these to cover a framed glass door and two 36 x 72 side windows. The mechanics work well. The supplied bolts for installation interfere with the locking mechanism on the mounting bracket. You need to replace those bolts with some flat trumpet head screws that will be almost flush with the base of the mounting bracket. Otherwise the supplied bolts do not allow the shade frame to lock securely to the mounting brackets. One shade arrived with manufacturing damage to the shade material, a rip in the fabric. I notified CS right away upon arrival. A couple of communications later, CS agreed to send out a replacement shade, and they didn't even need the damaged shade returned. Very happy with Steve's service.
