Update on an UPDATE: Green Pepper Gourmet Stop

Stepping out of the shadows and into the spotlight, Green Pepper Gourmet Stop revealed itself to be a star among the restaurants at the Ketchup Food Community and also great food establishments around the City of Pines.  Reinvention (not just one but two) seems to have paid off and glad I am to have returned.

The new Green Pepper scene.  As you can see, it’s more weather proof now.  Wall paneling (Home Improvement like fencing. Let’s do the Tim “the Toolman” Taylor grunt!) on what used to be open sides where diners could get wet in rainy weather.  The wall inside is prettier also. (Wah, reminds me of Batanes. Oh to return to where the hills are alive and rolling =D).  Take a look at BEFORE.

UPDATE: Green Pepper at the Ketchup Food Community

In the blog about the food establishments in the Ketchup Food Community, I left you sort of hanging with the TBD (to be determined) rating for Green Pepper gourmet stop.  It was not until the end of the year that a long time friend and I got to experience dining here.  Shout out to Anne! (“,)

UPDATE 03/26/2013 …scroll down to the bottom of this blog for a sneak peek of what’s changed.

Dinelli Gourmet at Le Monet: “Damn You, Eggs Benedict”

Dinelli’s Gourmet has long been a fixture at the Camp John Hay Filling Station (beside Strawberries and Ice Cream).  I never really got around to visiting the place since I had so many other establishments on my list before it.  When the Le Monet Hotel was being built, I saw through their big wide windows that they had a beautiful chandelier and big comfy looking peach colored chairs in their restaurant.  I just had to bump it up my list just to experience it.  So I scoured the net for their information when I heard that they were open for business.  I found their details on Facebook and I made a reservation.  Just a few minutes later, I got the confirmation and so breakfast buffet at Dinelli’s was on.
