Day 61 Abbie’s Kitchen
For our last big night out to dine, we went to Abbie’s Kitchen in Cottonwood. What a wonderful experience. It is very high end and a bit pricey, but the best we have eaten here. It is in a small 1920’s home what has been renovated with intimate dining rooms, I believe there were 8 tables and a commercial kitchen. There were three tables out in front on the porch to eat at when it is nice out too. Everything is made fresh and unbelievably tasty. The presentation is fabulous. Everything is served on fine china. Fresh roses on the tables were gorgeous. Abbie has a very impressive background of being a personal chef. She came around often to see how everything was. They serve only local wines. And we have visited the vineyards here. We had Creamy Mushroom Crepes and a Caesar Salad for appetizers. Then on to the main course of Red Bird Farms Chicken Picatta over Herbed House Made Fettuccini. Walter had a Bone In Ribeye with Mashed Potatoes. His potatoes were served in an onion. Mine was out of sight; best Picatta I have ever had. Walter found out his steak actually came from Nolan Ryan’s ranch in Texas. He said it was mighty tasty too. Of course, we had to indulge and have dessert. He had homemade Apple Pie with Ice Cream and I had a Poached Pear in Pastry. Oh, boy, were they ever good. We will be going back next year for sure.
