Finder's Pub

Finders Pub is the only place around here that serves their meals on Fiestaware. I think it adds a nice homey feel to an already comfortable and good-eatin' restaurant.

Tonight, I had the Bud Light draft. It's a steal at $1.95/pint. I also ordered the baked haddock dinner. It came with a very large piece of haddock, perfectly cooked, with a light topping of bread crumbs that were appropriately crispy. I chose the mashed potatoes as a side. They were delicious, and had little bits of potato skin in them, so I knew they were real. The pat of butter I added made the experience even more decadent. The vegetable side was mixed vegetables: broccoli, parsnips, carrots, green beans, cauliflower. They were pretty awful - unflavored (I chose not to add the butter provided), and kind of soft and I guess overcooked. But I ate them because they're good for me.

My dining companions, Buffalo Girl and Steak and Potatoes, had the BLT on white with fries and the Sirloin Tips and Tomatoes Salad. The BLT was okay, a little dry. The sirloin salad was very good. It looked good from where I was sitting. Romaine lettuce and spring greens, very red plum tomatoes, onions, gorgonzola cheese, and steak tips. S and P chose blue cheese dressing and was very happy with his meal. His only complaint was the tips were cooked more than he'd like. He ordered medium-rare and they weren't rare enough.
