We were up at Hamilton Town Center, about 10 miles from here, today to do a little shopping and grab some lunch and a movie.
We stopped by the Stone Creek Dining Company, a place that has been on my must visit list for a long time. We are so glad we did. For us, a great lunch can make the day.
First, the place is nice. Comfy seating and atmosphere. Our waitress, Eden, was really nice.
We ordered the spinach artichoke dip for openers. While we were waiting for that we were served bread and a dipping oil that was very good. We inquired about its ingredients and we'll soon be trying to duplicate it. They also sell it by the bottle. It's a great blend of sun dried tomatoes and red pepper flakes, among other things.
Then came the dip. Outstanding. Served with grilled focaccia bread, the dip really tasted so fresh. So many times when you order spinach and artichoke dip it is over blended to the point where you lose the texture. Not the case at Stone Creek. The dip had inviting chunks of artichoke and tomatoes. It really was outstanding.
Anita ordered the turkey Reuben with a roasted tomato cous cous. The turkey was fresh and moist, and the cous cous had a great multi-layered flavor. I ordered the corned beef Reuben with slaw. The corned beef was super tender. The sign of a good Reuben for me is that you have to use a lot of napkins. This was a good Reuben. And the slaw was obviously fresh made. Crunchy and tasty.
We can't wait to return for another meal. We enjoyed the great food and excellent service.
