Sorry, I went out last night and forgot to photograph where we ate, so you'll have to make due.
My lovermuffin and I went out on a date last night because we realized the last date we had was in early October '09. Seriously, 4 mths ago! Marriage counselors worldwide are shaking their heads in disapproval.
We went to Roy's at the Inn at Spanish Bay. This place was really great for a few reasons:
1. They refund the 17 mile drive fee if you spend $25 (yeah, I'm a sucker for refunds).
2. The place is amazingly beautiful, with a view from our table of the sunset over the bay.
3. We got to walk the paths around the place and down to the beach, which is just so beautiful.
Be forwarned: if you do this, no matter the time of year, bring a coat.
4. The food was orgasmic. I have never had such amazing lamb.
5. I wore jeans and did not feel out of place at all even though the place is high end. This is a big plus for me because even though I adore the idea of dressing up, I HATE the reality of tight dresses and high heels.
6. Last but not least, (this could be viewed as a pro or a con depending on individual preference) one word: bagpiper in kilt. Yeah, baby.
Like everywhere around here, Roy's was expensive, so to curb cost we shared a meal and a dessert. We ended up spending about $60 including tip.

- I'm a southern gal born and raised, living in the southeast all of my life. That is, until a year ago when I loaded up my kids, hubby, cat, dog, and a whole lot of stuff and hauled them over 2300 miles to Big Sur, CA. I now live dangling over the Pacific Ocean on the far western edge of the continental United States. Sometimes I feel as if I've fallen through the looking glass like Alice. But, I'll say this - Big Sur makes for an awesome Wonderland!
