Bakersfield California.....The Bistro

Last night when I arrived I was very hungry. My flight from San Angelo was pretty long but I enjoyed it. I arrived at my hotel Four Points by Sheraton and the restaurant here is The Bistro. The Bistro was very dark with candlelight and I thought to myself "I wish my wife was here!" The menu was more of a fine dining than casual eaterie. Prices are medium high. About the food, in one word: Excellent. I had the Prime Rib with Au Jus. Cooked just like I like it at medium. To say this was a hunk of meat is an understatement. Almost 2 inches thick and about 8 X 4 across I almost could't eat it all. This was not a dessert night for sure. The salad the preceded the main course had some mixed greens with Gorgonzola cheese, pecans, and a light vinaigrette dressing with croutons and parmesan. Fresh veggies complimented my Prime Rib. Fresh Asparagus steamed and bright green was laid on some mashed potatoes with a waffle potato garnish in the middle. Presentation was awesome to say the least. This meal started my time here very well and I'm looking forward to more. The Bistro comes highly recommended! See you all soon! It's off for my new opportunity!
