So I finally get a weekend with just me and the spousal unit. No kid, no chores, just a weekend for fun. we made reservations at The Hotel St. Nicholas which I will get to in another review. In the meantime, I have to tell you how great this casino food was. No shit, casino food. They have a little place called Pints and Platters which serves Irish style fare. Lamb stew, Guiness on tap, you get the picture. I usually prefer to patronise small, family owned places, but in Criple Creek, that just isnt’ in the cards. So we stop in for dinner on a Friday night. It’s fairly busy and things are hopping. I have not received such good service in a very long time. Kaitlin our server, was the best. She was quick, effecient, knowledgeable and friendly. The food was really quite good as well. I had a Cobb salad and the wife had a burger. I know, I know, you went to an Irish pub and had a salad? Yes, I did. I have serious problems with MSG and I have to be extremely careful of what I eat or I will be in the ER for 12 hours. The salad was very fresh, very well made and fantastic. My wifes burger was also really good. I topped it all off with a Guiness and the evening was complete. Saturday, we went there for lunch. Again it was excellent, from the great service to the great food. Then we went back for breakfast Sunday morning before we left for home. Bangers and scrambled eggs with beans. All in all, I could not have been happier. Finally I get to tell you all of good food and service. I HIGHLY recommend it.
