The kitchen here was closed on Sunday night in order that we might celebrate the anniversary of my wife's arrival on this terrestrial globe a few decades ago. Well, OK, more than a few, but exactly how many I won't reveal to preserve my happy home. To adequately celebrate this event we invited another couple to join us for dinner at The Joseph Ambler Inn on Horsham Road in Montgomery Township. The inn has a reputation for fine dining with an exquisite menu and once again we were not disappointed. From the warm bread assortment to the chocolate covered strawberries as a parting treat, every course was thoughtfully prepared and elegantly served.
The birthday girl ordered the New Zealand barramundi for her entree while the rest of the table delighted in roasted lamb shank and filet mignon. And for dessert three of us ordered a decadent cheesecake and a single creme brulee completed the round. One of the cheesecakes arrived at the table with a celebratory candle in it!
The quality of the dining experience was only surpassed by the conviviality of our guests. It was indeed a memorable experience. And I didn't have to prepare or cook any of it!
