Log Haven

For my birthday date with Jason, we decided to get dressed up and head up Millcreek Canyon to Log Haven, a restaurant that came highly recommended by my parents. We knew it would probably be good, but didn't think it could possibly live up to the claims by my parents that it was "the best meal they'd ever had in a restaurant".

We were wrong. Everything about this restaurant was delicious and amazing. The ambiance, the "palate tantalizer", and every morsel of food that we put in our mouths. We started off with a palate tantalizer which was some sort of rice and cheese thing. I don't know, all I know was how it tasted, and it was incredible. For appetizers, we splurged, and got Lamb Lollipops, which was basically mini rack of lamb. I wanted to gnaw on the bone for the rest of the night- it was delicious! Jason and I each got salads. I got one with an Heirloom Tomato and homemade ricotta and pesto, and Jason got Heirloom lettuce, sauteed mushrooms, and a Truffle vinaigrette. Every bite was incredible. Have you ever wanted to cry because the food you were eating was so delicious? Oh, right...neither have I......

For our main courses, I had a Bison steak, and Jason had Pork. Time has caused me to forget the specifics of each dish, but they were incredible! For dessert, we had a little bit of heaven on a plate. It was dark, milk, and white chocolate yumminess with a Pomegranate sorbet on top, and Pomegranate reduction under. I DID cry over this course. Holy crap. Take me back to eat here. It's my love language!

It was so great to have an evening alone with Jason, and Hazen was great for the babysitter! We laughed a ton and enjoyed one another's company. I love birthdays!
