Default Best side ever

There is a restaurant in a hotel near us. The restaurant has had it's ups and downs. Got a new chef, manager recently. We decided to give it a try for a little birthday dinner. I had the duck breast, and it was wonderful. The best thing was the vegetable served with it. It was tiny, tender Brussels sprouts and teeny-tiny potatoes. I have never seen potatoes that small, they were about 1 inch across. The sprouts and the potatoes were halved and cooked with a slight char. They were tender and very delicious. It never occurs to me to take a picture!!

I have been pan frying Brussels sprouts this spring cause I do not want to heat the oven. They come out very nice. Now I just have to find tiny potatoes to add to the mix!

It was a wonderful evening in Denver and we walked about half of the way home. Did a little bar hopping along the way. Mild temp, no wind, a few drops of rain. It was a perfect evening.
