Review of Cooking:
Woke up with a fever. Man that sucked. Got all drugged up and slept until dinner. Woke up again but to a wonderful meal. Steak from Costco, fries, steam vegetables and cream of mushroom soup. Carmen had that lobster bisque. Thanks Kevin for driving all the way to Costco!

December 23, 2013 - Last Night at Vermont

Snack Time at Waffle Cabin



Found at the top of the gondola ride. Two servers who don't speak good English will be serving you this delicious waffle. I was told that the chocolate topping was a must. I will explore that option next time.

Review of Restaurant:
The owners were very friendly and chatted with our crew. The food was good.

Calamari done just right. Soft and tender with the correct amount of crispiness. Wings packed a spicy punch. Mussels were swimming in a nice coconut sauce. The fish in the fish in chips did not have flavour but with some fresh lemon juice and malt aioli sauce, it was a nice combination.
