Timberline Bar and Grill

So, last night, for my birthday I was treated to dinner on the Mt. Roberts Tram at the Timberline Bar and Grill.  And, can I just tell you?  The grilled halibut.  To die for! I mistakenly ordered the grilled salmon with a white wine glace.  Though that was tasty, I ended up passing that around to my four year old daughter and husband.  I stole bite after bite off my husbands plate of the grilled halibut with the strawberry salsa.  It was almost like eating desert.  I wish I had taken a photo to show you.  This dish also had a striking presentation for any reception.  The pink of the berry salsa on top the white halibut with the green of the asparagus I substituted. The orzo pasta that accompanied the meal was quite lovely, but, to keep the meal on the lighter side, next time, I would ask to substitute the pasta for a green salad and keep the entire dish looking light and fresh.

We ended up splitting the chocolate bomb cake and the bread pudding.  I am not a huge of chocolate and the denseness of this chocolate cake didn't do it for me, though my daughter certainly enjoyed it.  I, on the other-hand, thoroughly delighted in the signature bread pudding with vanilla sauce.  I could have eaten the entire piece.

To all of you locals who have eaten at the tram in the past, I want to let you know the Mark Collier the new Food & Beverage/Special Events Manager is doing a wonderful job.  I challenge you to giving the tram a try and letting me know what your thoughts are.

And for you brides.  Can you just imagine how spectacular and special your reception would be on the top Mt. Roberts?
