Working downtown can be a positive or a negative. My waistline is telling me it is a negative because of all the restaurants downtown. You don't run into the chain restaurants that you see at the mall - instead you get to sample the culinary skills of the locals. There are a few restaurants that I enjoy eating at (and if I was made of money would frequent more often). Then there are others that I know of but have never tried anything they offer.
Last week I decided that I wanted to try out Cornerstone. Most people know this as one of the popular bars to hang out at on a Friday or Saturday night. However, I am downtown during the day (and not so much on the weekend nights). So, I went in last week to see if we could get a few to go menus for work. They were out (which to me speaks volumes in a good way). I came back this week to see if they had any. Unfortunately they were still out - so they told me to take one of their menus with me so we could check out the options. I was shocked - who would really do that? So at this point, I am fairly pleased by the service and I haven't even placed an order yet. Today a few of us placed our order - this could become one of my new favorite places. I got the Cobb Salad Wrap and the Buffalo Chips. Wow! The wrap was perfect - in my opinion - because it had the right amount of dressing. A co-worker tried one of the buffalo chips and said, "eh it tastes like seasoning salt." The tune quickly changed and the response was "oh there it is" We were absolutely delighted by our meal (reasonably priced and delicious).
So thank you to the crew at Cornerstone for your service and cuisine. I can't wait to come back and try some other options on the menu! On another note, if you do like to head out on the weekends, this is a great place to go. There is usually a good crowd on the dance floor (I used to go more frequently before the kids...now I get out maybe once a month). It's a nice atmosphere for a fun night out.
