the committed pig

I have a new favorite eatery...
do you remember that awesome lunch I talked about on Sunday?
 
 It was here...
 
 the committed pig
 
When you walk in you see this...the place is packed.
There's a reason, the food is awesome!

 When you look up, you see this.
 
On the wall you see this...
"the chicken is involved but the pig is committed.
which one are you"?

 There was not one thing I did not Love about this place.

 Cute, cute, cute...

 I ordered grilled cheese and soup...
I have never ordered grilled cheese in a restaurant before...
this was so good, so crisp, so many cheeses...
there are no words to describe it.
And those cute little serving trays...adorable!

 Chuck ordered a burger, it's their specialty.
You can see it peaking out, just under the lettuce.
 And yes, there are 2 patties of a beef mix.
And waffle fries, ummm, I see a bite missing from one of
those waffle fries.
They were so good, the hubs does share.

 And as if Oreos are not good enough on their own,
they fry them here, in red velvet batter.
 
YuM!!!

While we waited for our table, yes we waited a long time,
we wandered around this...

 Street Fair...

We learned how to make fresh mozzarella, with a sampling,

 we ran into My Poppy's Alpacas...

and I was able to spend a few special moments with Poppy
and these two beautiful, friendly
Alpaca's.

You leave your phone number with the hostess at the restaurant,
 and they send you a text, when your table is ready,
how cool is that!!

  2. Where? Where? Where?

    I also had to laugh, for in my effort to give up swearing, I have taken to yelling PIG!
    Maybe I can be their hostess? Or, I could walk around town yelling "PIG!"

  4. Looks like a great place! I'd be all over the burger, but the grilled cheese looks awesome, too. I personally prefer my pigs to be very committed.

  5. I wonder why chicken was not committed.

    Did the chicken lack of motivation like the pig?

  11. Wow - I really like that. The food looks great. I was expecting it to be a bar-b-que place; we have one here that's just called "The Pig". :)

  13. I wish more restaurants spent the time on all the extras that make a place like so nice. Then I don't mind the wait.

  20. Sounds like a fun place. That soup looked yummy and so did the sandwiches and the fries. Believe it or not I'm not a fan of Oreo cookies so I'd pass on those because I don't like Red Velvet either. - It's always fun to find an eatery that you enjoy. I think you found a good one.

  21. I will wish to visit this one day; it is diffidently my kind of eatery. The pictures made my mouth water for a grilled cheese sandwich; it's such a comfort food. The fired Oreo's sound interesting; maybe delicious is a better word.
    Blessings and hugs!
