Exceptional Experience - We decided to do something fun and different for our 40th wedding anniversary. This was the most amazing experience with such unique and delicious bites and so many different options. We would never have experienced this variety of cuisine on our own. Cathy was so knowledgeable and such a great guide. I highly recommend this to everyone-locals, nearly locals, and visitors to the area.
