EATS!

Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

We are always looking for great places to enjoy a good meal. One of our favorite places is the Fireside Grill at the Diamond Jo in Dubuque. The atmosphere is very romantic and the food is great. Carol enjoyed her birthday this Friday at the grill. She had prime rib. It was so tender it melted in your mouth. She especially liked the asparagus and the variety of breads. It is a little pricey, but well worth it for that special occasion.

Another great place is Breitbach’s Country Dining. This is a causal dining restaurant in the town of Balltown. It is the oldest restaurant in Iowa and has been open since 1852. The Breitbach family has run the place since 1855. They serve Midwestern dishes and German ethnic food. The pies are awesome and were shown on Food Network. Portions are ample and the atmosphere is friendly and casual. Balltown is not far from QWL. So if you are looking for an experience, we suggest stopping by Breitbach Country Dining. It is a favorite of our guests.

If you are looking for a good hamburger, we suggest Champs in Dubuque. The portions are good and the price is resaonable. My favorite is the fish sandwich.
