After spending part of the morning at the Denver botanical
gardens with the family we met at Steuben's for lunch. Steuben's was featured on Diners drive-ins and
dives and I couldn't exactly remember what they showed on that episode, but
after I looked at the menu a little bit I remembered that they showed the lobster
rolls
Before we got there everyone else already ordered the hummus
and falafel and it was gone when we got there. They enjoyed it very much. We
took a little bit of time to look over the menu, which it took me a little bit
of time to figure out what to get because there were so many sandwiches that
sounded good. Eventually I ordered the Monte cristo sandwich. I've always been intrigued by these, but never
had one that I remember. Our waitress was excited when I ordered it saying it
was her favorite. Everyone else ordered some sort of sandwich and I know my dad
had a cheesesteak. The sandwiches just came with the sandwich and fries or the
other side dishes cost extra, we all ordered fries.
When
we were done with just about everything our waitress made sure to ask me how my
Monte cristo was. It was a great sandwich
basically a deep-fried ham, turkey and cheese sandwich that was topped with a
bit of powdered sugar and served with raspberry jam. I didn't know if I would like the raspberry
jam with it, but I really liked the sweet with the sandwich. You could easily get
too much sweet if you weren't careful though. This was excellent and so were
the fries.
They came in crab cans lined with paper. These were quite good
especially after I added a bit of salt.
Dad
really enjoyed his cheesesteak and everyone else enjoyed their sandwiches and
we are all looking forward to returning.
