CoSprings: Dinner @ Flying Horse

When we moved into our home in March, Classic (the builder) gave us a welcome basket of goodies. Tucked in amongst the goodies was a certificate for dinner at the Steakhouse at Flying Horse.

Unfortunately, our plan to dine there last spring was derailed when we got hit by a bombogenesis. For those not familiar with the terminology, it's basically a bomb cyclone ... a meteorological term that refers to a rapidly intensifying low-pressure system with blizzard conditions.

Fast forward to December. With the dinner certificate nearing its expiration date, we made reservations to go to Flying Horse tonight with mom and Aylin ... definitely more fun than going alone. We had a delightful meal ... with an ambiance that melds the casual with the elegant. Those who had the filet mignon deemed their meat cooked to perfection. Mom enjoyed her ½ lobster tail. And I was well satisfied with the Caprese salad and blue crab cake I cobbled together from the appetizer side of the menu.

I had hoped to wander around after dinner to enjoy any holiday cheer that we might find on the grounds. But it was just too darn cold!En savoir plus
