It is said man cannot live on bread alone.
I beg to differ.
We dropped in to one of our favorite restaurants the other day for a quick lunch.

Royal River Grill House rarely disappoints.

One cranberry margarita in…

We enjoyed the views and the virtually empty space.

It was a beautiful autumn day, everyone must have had outdoor plans.

A new item had been added to the menu recently and we took full advantage.

You can have your charcuterie boards filled with meat…
I’m all about the bread and butter.

With a cup of creamy herbed clam chowder?
Damn near perfect.

Yuuum!!
I sometimes reminisce about the bread&butter at an Italian restaurant that’s a little to inconvenient to visit.
Do you treat yourself to fancy butter at home? Devonshire Cream butter is my fave, but I can’t find it anymore. I think I currently have french butter waiting for some extra good bread.

But you are slipping, Mrs. Maine. The second drink behind the cranberry margarita remained nameless… 😎

I like the cheese on charcuterie boards, but my husband can (and does) have all the meat. That butter board looks fabulous.

It was a perfect meal.
Everyone dyes chowder up here, but so few do it properly…

I see there are also oyster crackers! Despite the bread – a must for clam chowder everywhere I guess!

I’ve never tried a butter board (shocking, given where I live) but I know they’re trendy. Definitely something I could get on board with!
