Support your local bistro
I had the occasion to dine out a few times this weekend… Saturday lunch, dinner, and Sunday breakfast. On two out of three occasions, the place was practically empty. These were all fine establishments, so it is not a factor of the food or service… just a function of the economic downturn.
Staff in these places either have had hours cut, or maybe soon will. Empty tables means empty tip jars, too. If you haven’t been to your local “joint” in a while, please do… and leave a tip!
My latest discovery is weekend breakfast at the Copper Falls Restaurant at the Auburn Golf Course. They start serving at 9 a.m., and the chef makes the greatest breakfast potatoes I’ve ever had. While there are a couple of other famous and not-so-famous breakfast places in Auburn, this one deserves better patronage because of the quality of the food, the excellent service, and it’s the only one of the three that can serve you a bloody mary!

Can’t speak for the breakfast, but Lee, MacDaddy and I had a fantastic dinner at Copper Falls last week. High quality for a reasonable (not cheap) price.
