Going to Jiko at AK Lodge for dinner!

We've been looking forward to going back there, plus we get to see the beautiful lodge one more time.


Update:

Dinner was very good. Jiko (menu) always is. Our server was originally busy, so another - Ron - came over so that we had prompt service: that's the way to do it!  I decided to have a drink, but couldn't find the list. Ron suggested they make a "mystery drink" and I went for the adventure!  They made something with a watermelon liqueur that was very refreshing and tasty.

I had the Roasted Kuri Squash Soup, which was as good as I expected, the mixture of cool and heat in both temperatures and tastes. Then I had the Seared Maize Pudding, which was better than I expected, and followed it with the Pistachio Creme Brulee. Plus, the atmosphere is wonderful here and I've always loved its design, especially the lights above being birds in flight. I took a bunch of pictures which I'll post soon.

We went into the gift shop and then came back; John didn't ant to leave the dogs alone too long in case they bothered the neighbors with barking (they hadn't, but had been quiet).  I was going to take the golf cart out to do another webcam of decorations, but I couldn't find my annual pass.  That led to a "tear up the place and find it" that ate up a bunch of time.  So I got ready for tomorrow, and now I'd better get John going to walk the dogs with me one last time tonight before he falls asleep!
