It’s restaurant week in York so there is a virtual smorgasbord
of options in affordable, delicious local dining this week. I’m not certain why
anyone would choose a chain restaurant over a locally owned restaurant. In
addition to supporting your community, the food is better, and far more
interesting.
Saturday night my love took me out for dinner at the WhiteRose Bar & Grill where we supped on meals served on “hot rocks” - pieces of stone heated to
650 degrees. These steaming hot stones are delivered to your table along with
the fresh ingredients for your meal. You get to cook dinner yourself on your
personal rock (carefully). After sprinkling the rock with sea salt, the food is
placed directly on the stone. There’s no oils involved which keeps the meal
fairly healthy, especially as restaurant food goes. It was an absolute treat.
If you’re headed out for restaurant week (it continues until March 2), I highly
recommend it.
The biggest dilemma this week has been the search for a
backpack.
