Yesterday Darci, Randi, Crissy, Eric, Kristen and I all went to the new Vail Chophouse for lunch. It was their "soft" opening ... invited neighbors and friends only ... just to help them work out the kinks. We were excited for a free lunch, but we really got wound up when we arrived and our super cute, South African server Karen said, "We want you to order as much as possible ... soup, salad, appetizer, entree AND dessert". Look out. We waddled home two hours later.
As awesome as the lunch was, the buzz in the place (and outside) was even better. I sat down with owner Brian Nolan, Vail Jazz Foundation exec dir Mia Vlaar and PR guru Pat Peeples for a few minutes and everyone was practically giddy with the excitement of the Arrabelle opening. I've got to admit, after four years of talking about how great it's going to be ... it is pretty incredible.

So you had a little crush on our waitress, did you?
yeah ... so if I was about 80 years younger ...
Please do tell...what did you have for lunch?
A bowl of killer potato chowder soup
Mahi Fish tacos
Some of Crissy's crabcakes
Some of Randi's Salmon salad sandwich
A little of Kristen's prime rib sandy
A bunch of somebody's (?) ceaser salad
A couple of sliders
More than my share of the chocolate sin thing
And a whole mess of the bourbon pecan pie.
Told you ...
