Breakfast: wheaties, a banana and coffee

Lunch: Buffet at the "new" Mexican place owned by Mike Casey and a couple of "Diet Pepsis"

 Dinner:  We went to the new Miara {sp} Hills restaurant and I had

• small salad with a spicy Thousand Island Dressing
• a 12 oz (yes twelve ounce!) Fillet Mignon and
• a nice sized baked potatoe plus (since I was the designated driver)
• several glasses of ice water

In early April, we went to a place called "Hams", said to be the "best steak house in Dodge City". This restaurant was small and looked like a roadside diner; the steak was excellent and the side dishes very nice. They even had a nice selection of beers (that is, beers whose names did not include the words "Light" or "Lite" or "Ultra") and I was the designated drinker vice designated driver for a change...

The owner of Hams got the contract to run a restaurant at the city owned clubhouse at the city owned golf course. So, of course, we went. (Actually, I think Kathie looked at the "Healthy Choice" meals she had just brought home from Dillions and was thinking "I could go for an unHealthy Choice". I was game for "unHealthy" myself. Of course, I was game for "unHealthy"! If I wasn't, I might not be a diabetic looking at having to use Levemir injected insulin in about 1½ months!)

The service was fine, the food excellent, the view from the dining room quite nice and all-in-all, it was an excellent evening at a very nice place.

It looks like Dodge City has got a new and best-in-town steak house!
