It’s been a long year for us. Just long. We could use some good things to happen soon. Just sayin’. So when we found out that a friend/mentor was opening her own restaurant on Orcas Island, we decided that we had to take a trip. So on Thursday, we took one night and went to Orcas Island.
Orcas is one of the San Juan Islands. There are several, but honestly I don’t have time to go look up how many of them there actually are. Busy week ahead and I’ve got at least 3 blog posts to write on Cook Local. So for now, we’ll just say that Orcas is one of the islands, and it’s very pretty.
We’ll have a detailed post on Allium (the restaurant) over on Cook Local tomorrow or Tuesday, and I do hope you’ll read it. The dinner we had there was simply one of the best we’ve ever had. Here’s a slideshow of the photos we took and while you can view them within this blog post, I urge you to click over to Flickr (just click on any of the photos) to see the descriptions. Unfortunately I can’t see a way to show the descriptions in this slideshow on the blog. Otherwise you’ll just be looking at a lot of photos of food without knowing what the food even is.
More blogging soon, I hope. I really don’t mean to ignore this blog, I just don’t have the time any more.
