The inaugural restaurant for the dinner club, chosen by Kirk & Kathy, was the Kirby Steakhouse located off of 1604 on Saturday November 15th, which also happened to be one of our members birthday. The ambiance of the restaurant was very pleasing. It had several stunning dining rooms, five private rooms, and a lounge where you could enjoy a cigar if one desired. The steakhouse featured Mid-Western aged prime beef but offered seafood dishes, and daily Chef Feature creations. At 10 o’clock, live music commenced coupled with the elegant yet casual atmosphere made the whole dining experience very enjoyable.
The members of the first dinner consisted of Bill & Trish, Kirk & Kathy, and Troy & Nichdali. The evening got started with Kirk & Kathy arriving first. While waiting for the rest of the members to arrive they enjoyed a nice glass of Riesling. The remaining members arrived within 15 min of the first couple and were seated promptly at our circular table, after cocktails were had by the rest of the group, introductions of those who were not known to the members was performed. Kirk was given a gift of a sports book and an old man handy pack. He thanked Troy & Nichdali for the thoughtful gift.
The evening consisted of light talk and banter, and some very good food. The only issue from the evening was one of the members did not like how their food was prepared. Nichdali does not like her meat cooked any other way except well done. She tasted Kirk’s lamb, liked the taste, so a trade was performed and both enjoyed the others food. Nichdali also went on to enjoy some of Kathy’s fish as well. The dining experience lasted around 3 hours and was deemed a success by all members.
The over experience of the meal was rated an 8 out of 10. The 2 points that were docked were due to a member not liking their meal. The cost of the meal was very reasonable and would definitely recommend, again a very good start. No excursions after the meal were done, so the evening ended with good bye to all.
