I recently had lunch with friends at Alder Wood Bistro. It was one of the first perfect weather days we’ve had this summer and the outdoor patio was ideal. Lunch was great. Dessert was better still. Bliss, in fact. Chocolate bliss, one of their signature sweets.
Shaker lemon pie was also on the menu, also a winner.
The patio area is shaded by two enormous cherry trees and landscaped with edibles that are used in the kitchen. A wonderful spot for a good time with friends.
I’d have a hard time choosing. Chocolate and lemon are my two favorite flavors for desserts (not together though!).
What a beautiful setting! It must be a real pleasure to lunch there with friends on a sunny day. It also must be simply joyful to enjoy their desserts, esp the chocolate delight!!
Oh my, that looks too delicious!
Chocolate always works for me! Even better when there’s a friend to share with.
It does look like the ideal place to meet some friends, very pretty. I do fancy both those pieces of pie. I can’t pick a favorite so I guess I’d settle for a little of each.
Oooo that chocolate dessert looks decadently divine Kay.. I put my hand up I’m a chocoholic! 😀
Sounds like a wonderful spot – good friends and good food, and our weather indeed has been spectacular – I’m enjoying every second of it.
Wow. It all looks wonderful!
I hope they tasted as good as they look.
