Ritz-Carlton Reynolds - The Food

Above ~ Briana enjoying a smore that came on top of a creme brulee dish that Doug and I shared. 

I have to say, almost everything we ate at the Ritz was superb. Several evenings, Doug, Bri and I dined outside at Georgia's Bistro...

Our waiter the first night was named Travis. He was fantastic. We liked him so much, we requested him the other nights we were there too.

The buffalo-styled deviled eggs were amazing...

As well as the flank steak with chimichurri sauce...

Bri ordered the mac and cheese several times. I have to say, I took a bite and it was some of the best mac n cheese I've ever had...

We ate our dinner one evening (Memorial Day) and right when we were finished, a rain shower came through. We took shelter at another table under an overhang. And a beautiful rainbow appeared...

Another evening, I ordered a half chicken on cheese grits. So delicious...

Doug's pork chop was so good...

Bri got candy-laced chocolate ice cream...

We spent our morning and early afternoons at the pool. We enjoyed frozen drinks and lunch poolside from Gaby's Restaurant...

These BBQ pork nachos were so yummy (I ate a bunch and felt like I hardly dented it!)...

We also had lunch and snacks in Gaby's as well...

They had some of the yummiest calamari I've ever eaten. So soft, not chewy at all...

One evening, we did eat away from the hotel at a restaurant called "Filet's." It was good - not great. I did get a lobster bisque that was delish, but my steak came out underdone and when I sent it back, it came back overdone. Oh well.

I have to say though, the desserts we ordered there were amazing. Look at Miss B's face when she got her brownie sundae...


Doug and I split a salted caramel gelato with white chocolate covered pretzels throughout. It was scrumptious...

Each night, s'mores were available to make at the fire pit. Due to several rain outs (it liked to rain at night), we never had a chance to actually do it. The food and beverage supervisor of Georgia's Bistro, Kevin, sent a s'mores kit up to the room for Bri since she missed out...

Kevin was a very bright spot during our vacation. Whenever he saw us, he checked in and always had a friendly face and kind words.

We ate breakfast in our room each morning. We either ate something light that I brought from home or a goodie from the coffee shop next to the lobby. We didn't want heavy breakfasts so we could get to get over to the pool to play.

I guess when you are staying at a Ritz, you have to indulge a bit. Indulge we did. :)
