Birthday at the Cactus Club

This weekend was my husband’s birthday. His two daughters came over from the mainland to help celebrate the event, along with Kelly and myself.

As always, a very special greeting from Kaitlyn when we arrived. Just love this young lady. The new manager, Austin is now in full swing and he came over to introduce himself. After chatting for a few minutes he was off and the whole table said “we like him”. This young man had some big shoes to fill when Logan was promoted away from here, but he is doing exceptionally well.

Our  server, Samantha was awesome. Every time  she came to the table, she said Happy Birthday to Don. We told her if they sang Happy Birthday they had to do it a few times.

Again, the Cactus is always consistent with their food and their staff. Thank you. It was a fun time as always.

Talons Restaurant, Osoyoos

On the weekend, we had special company visiting us and they wanted to take us out for dinner. We gave them a selection of winery restaurants and, due to the culture environment at Spirit Ridge Resort, they chose Talons. http://spiritridge.ca/dining/ I found out they do not take reservations between 7 – 8 p.m. as I was told that was when everyone wanted to dine, so it was first come-first served. We reserved for 6:30 p.m. and all was lovely. The restaurant is bright, clean, lively and a wait-staff that are on the ball.

We ordered our wine and then out meal. When it came (and this will show you just how astute the staff is), our friend kept looking at an item on the plate. We suggested what it might be, but …….another server in the restaurant rushed over and asked if anything was wrong. We told him what it was and he assured one and all it was a certain vegetable and all was well.

The meal was terrific…two of us ordered the crispy chicken and the two men each ordered something different. All agreed it was great. Then we had two desserts and all was shared. OMG! Was this good.

I again, would recommend this restaurant to one and all. Great food, great ambience, great staff.
