Dinner at the Hume

NelsonRestaurants.com

Thursday night this past week was dinner out with the family.  We chose the Hume Hotel restaurant because we hadn't been there in a while and it is always a good bet.  It was surprisingly not very full for a Thursday evening when Friday was a Remembrance Day holiday, but I guess a lot of people must go out of town on long weekends.

My wife and I shared the beef dip.  It tasted great, the bread was soft and the meat wasn't chewy like you sometimes get at other places.  The only thing I should have asked for was some horseradish, that would have topped it off nicely.  Beef dip is not something I'd usually order for myself, but it was one of those times when I'm glad I tried something out of the usual for myself.

The kids had the spaghetti, which is always a Hume Hotel favourite.  As usual, there was some left to bring home for the next day's lunch.

For dessert, we shared a piece of the black forest cake and three fruit pie a la mode.  The pie was well presented and looked as good as it tasted.  I even took a picture of it with my cellphone, I was so impressed.  One day I'll figure out how to add photos to the blog and share them.

All in all, another fun outing to the Hume Hotel restaurant!
