Last Saturday I went to a wedding in Oklahoma City. My co-worker Tia said “I do” with her soul mate Chico. The weather didn’t really cooperate, but I’ve heard that a rainy wedding day is a good sign. It didn’t rain during the ceremony, but the skies opened up during the reception. Our cell phones …
McGill’s is fine dining at dinner, upscale dining at lunch. Either option, the food is delicious and the atmosphere is wonderful. You won’t be disappointed. This spring I have been doing in-person stewardship visits with our club seat holders. It gets me out of the office, and allows me to meet with our donors on …
If there’s one thing that Joni and I do well, it’s eat. And drink wine. We discussed options of places to eat dinner, and I looked at restaurant.com, but nothing jumped out at us. Joni suggested The Classic Café. She said they usually go there as a special-occasion dinner, but since we hadn’t seen each other …
I’m really happy I added stewardship visits to my job. Mostly because I’ve gotten the chance to meet some of our club seat holders in their environment and learn more about them on a personal level. And I think they appreciate the opportunity to talk OSU without feeling like someone is asking for money. But …
For outstanding seafood flown in twice daily, and a wonderful fine dining experience in Tulsa, look no further than Bodean My friends all know my distrust of seafood in a landlocked state, and I’m not ashamed or afraid to admit it. I know there are a few restaurants in OKC and Tulsa that have good seafood, but …
One of our club seat holders had been trying for about 2 years to get me to come to Tulsa for dinner. No, nothing inappropriate or anything like that. It was to join him and his wife, along with the Merrifields, who owns Polo Grill. I always planned to, but life just got in the way. …
I’ve gone through lots of phases of New Year’s Eve in my life. As a young kid, my parents’ best friends had NYE parties, and it was the one night of the year we were allowed to stay up that late. Prince’s “1999” was released when we were in 7th grade, and we all said …
There’s always one night during the conference when there’s no venue tours, the exhibit hall closes by 7 and we have the evening to ourselves. So we’re always looking for something fun and delicious to do for dinner. Over the past couple of years we have become good friends with Jeff, Tom and Ed from Perlick, a company …
I’ve been horrible about updating this blog lately, so it’s my mission to fix that and post at least once a week. And of course since it’s been about 3 weeks I have to post even more often to catch up. So to continue my spring break funtivities trip to Dallas, the plan was for …
Kansas City is known for a lot of things, and steak is pretty high up there on the list. And steak is absolutely one of my favorite meals of all time. Ribeye is definitely my favorite cut. I know it’s fattier than other cuts, but to me that just means more flavor. When I was …
Wow, it’s been a month since I posted about a restaurant in this blog. That means I’ve got lots of work ahead of me, since we went to about 10 new restaurants in the past month. The evening of our site visit for the bowl game they hosted us for dinner at Texas Spice, the …
