“Eatery 66” – From Farm to Trailer on the Rockies’ Western Slope

“Eatery 66” – From Farm to Trailer on the Rockies’ Western Slope

If you find yourself in Southwest Colorado (more specifically in Ridgway, between Montrose and Ouray) do NOT miss the newest restaurant in town.  “Eatery 66” is owned by master-chef Spencer Graves and his wife Katie. Housed in a 1966 Airstream Overlander with a menu to die for, in a town with one of the most spectacular settings in Colorado, this is a must-stop for every Airstreamer on US 550 north of the San Juan Skyway.

Close to some awesome riding. A tip of the hat to my Airstream Club friends!

Sweet Onion Restaurant

I ate at the Sweet Onion restaurant in Waynesville, North Carolina on the recommendation of Dallas Peak. I had a blackened catfish sandwich with a local Frog stout. I have been trying to eat more fruit and vegetables so the Crème Brûlée appealed to me. It featured black berries and strawberries on top. The desert boat was floated in a chocolate/caramel sea. The whole meal was delicious and I was delighted to find my fruit for the day.

The geographic area is know as Frog Level. I asked the waitress why? She didn’t know. Nor did any of the other people I asked know. They were all tourists like me. If you are curious check here.
