The long-awaited Rosewood Grill is finally OPEN! WOO HOO!

Greetings Dear Family,

Pat and I, along with her boss Wayne and his wife Kim, attended the "opening night" of the Rosewood Grill in Hudson, Ohio. Actually, as Matt called it, "the Friends and Family Soft Opening."

 There was a limited menu for this night, a choice of 4 set meals, so we all got something different and shared. The 4 appitizers consisted of Stacked Shrimp, which was nice size cocktail shrimp stacked up around a green onion atop shrimp sauce, Mediterranean flatbread pizza, a sliced flatbread served with a tomato-pepper sauce with goat cheese that I forget the name of and finally Matt's famous butternut squash bisque. For dinner ,Pat got the French dip sandwich with fresh-cut fries, Wayne had the salmon entree with grilled asparagus and mashed potatoes, Kim had the fish sandwich also with the F-C fries and I had a steak with some very yummy cauliflower au gratin and also grilled asparagus. We followed suite and shared as we did with the appitizers. We topped it off by sharing some cheesecake and pineapple upside down cake. I believe all would agree that the food was very good and, personally, I'd say Matt hit a homerun with his menu and I can't wait to go back when the entire menu is available.

Below is a shot of the bar area that overlooks the kitchen and this was where our table was located.

Here we have a couple shots of the CHEF directing the action in the kitchen.

Diana said the construction guys finally finished the tile floor at about 4:50 this afternoon. Nothing like cutting it close and I'm sure that there'll be some other kinks to work out, as well. All in all, though,we had a great time and we'd like to say, "good job Matt and we're really proud of what you've accomplished! You've undoubtedly got a winner!"

Blessings to All,
