Wow, have not blogged in a month. Summer is always so busy with Will's baseball and now soccer too.
I definitely did eat at a place last weekend that is blog-worthy, the
Harbor Haus in Copper Harbor. It has been there for several decades and is always a treat to go to. It has been several years since I had eaten there. A friend of mine, Craig, who has a degree from the Culinary Institute of America, is a sous chef there and suggested we come in for dinner. Last Sunday was a gorgeous day so Ron and I decided to take a ride to the Keweenw in the Solstice.
The Harbor Haus is a traditional German restaurant and the waitresses wear the typical costume. I didn't get a photo but you can see the attire on their website (link is above).

Duck Liver Pate |
For our appetizer, we ordered duck liver pate and it was just like butter. It was served w/ crostini and endive leaves. Heavenly. There were also edible flowers as a garnish.

Salads |
For our salad course, I had a mixed green salad with the creamy house bacon dressing and Ron had a Caesar; I ate his anchovies.

Salmon |
For our entrees, Ron chose a filet mignon with a mushroom sauce with a side of German noodles, I can't recall the actual name now. Very nice. I chose the salmon with capers and a side of chard. Delicious.
A trip to the Harbor Haus in Copper Harbor is well worth the drive!
