We are getting creative as 2025 and the ABC challenge come to a close. Creative as in we are into “there isn’t a restaurant for that letter” territory.
Bending the rules in acknowledgement that there are no letter “Y” restaurants lets us sneak in big hitters. Nearly everyone we shared the challenge with asked if we had a letter “L” and if we didn’t Lost Letter should be it. It completely lived up to the hype. Fancy dining, fancy food, and all of it delicious. This for sure feels like a special event restaurant, but we went on random Wednesday for the challenge and it was great.
Yikes, this is the first restaurant in over twenty that we didn’t actually like. The review rule of thumb failed us. You could probably chalk this up to a chain of events. We’d never been to hot pot, the waitress asked us, and then explained so quiet and fast that we had to watch a quick video on our phones to figure things on our own. We eventually ate some good food, but I am generally not a fan of restaurants where I am in in charge of making me a great meal. Fondue, salad bars, Mongolian BBQ, and now Hot Pot are off the list.
