Yosemite National Park is a magical place. This is because of the spectacular views, hiking, biking, swimming and to me; dinner at the Awahnee hotel. Dinner at the Awhanee is a step back into time when fine dining was elegant and grand. There is a dress code which is loosely enforced. The historic dining room was built in 1926. The 34-foot-high beamed ceiling, floor-to-ceiling windows, chandeliers, linen tablecloths, beautiful china and to set the mood; a grand piano player.
I had a picture window seat for a million dollar Yosemite view. I began with bread assortment with whipped butter/olive pate. I splurged with some olives with spicy almond and then a Caesar salad with a tasty parmesan crisp. The Prime rib was fantastic with Yorkshire pudding and vegetables. Would the “Crumbsweeper appear? Of course, this is the Awhanee. Believe it or not I actually passed on dessert. I was just overwhelmed with Yosemite dining bliss. WoW!!!!
