Yesterday it was time to get out of here, and so we went to San Antonio so that HW2 could look at the bargains at Old Navy, Penney's, and other stores. For lunch HW2 had been reading about a restaurant located at the Pearl Brewery in the paper, so we had to try it out. This restaurant is a bit upscale, and the service was excellent. The water boy visited our table frequently which was a good thing, as I was very thirsty. You had your choice of a thin slice of orange, lime, or lemon for your water. The meal menu was explained by a waiter who was born in Lyon, France, and later moved to Belgium but is now in San Antonio. His accent was very difficult for me to follow, but we enjoyed him and his explanations.
They have an antipasta buffet of Mediterranean cuisine, and you can choose 3-5 selections for an appetizer. We chose goat cheese, a selection of meats, and capponata. It also came with bread ,which was excellent. For entrees we selected pork scalloppini and gnocchi. The pork was superb. HW2 also had a glass of Pinot Grigio, which she enjoyed. The dining area is open to the kitchen, so you can watch the chefs at work. They also serve pizza with their Marguerita Pizza priced by the time on the clock that it is ordered. So if you order it at 6:30, it will cost you $6.30. We did not know whether this held if you ordered it during the noon hour.
We certainly enjoyed our meal, and the service was superb. Although lunch was rather pricey, I think we would like to return and try other menu choices. Happy travels.
