This weekend my parents were in town celebrating their 33rd anniversary (as mentioned in a previous post) and they wanted to do something special with all of us (we were missing a few family members -- we missed you Josh, Kristine, Emma and Allred!). We ended up at The Roof Restaurant in Salt Lake City in our own private room with a gorgeous view of the city. Not only was it a spectacular atmosphere, it was hands down the best food I've ever had. Mitch and I have already made plans to go back there for our one year anniversary.
To set the stage for the following ridiculous conversation, let me describe the layout. Our room had a giant round table, which was awesome because we could all participate in one giant conversation instead of being grouped off into sections around a long rectangular table. The table could probably seat 18 people around it comfortably and had a floral arrangement in the center. Our room also had a door, we closed it so as not to annoy the customers in the main area because I think somehow we knew some ridiculousness would most likely ensue. At one point in the evening between appetizers and entrees, we started discussing the enormity of the table and the possibilities for hilarious activities (obviously).
Tyler: Guys, let's play duck, duck goose!
Me: What if we moved the flowers and played twister?
Jake: Yeah we could use plates of food for the board!
Everyone: (makes sounds of agreement)
Jake: Right hand, CHICKEN CORDON BLEU
At this point, our waiter (who was trying desperately to keep his professional composure) left the room with a huge grin on his face obviously trying not to audibly laugh as he closed the door. I just find it hilarious that in such a gorgeous and upscale place, my family obviously considers the possibility of a round of duck, duck goose.
But seriously, if you haven't been to The Roof I absolutely recommend it. And definitely get the chicken cordon bleu, it's fantastic ;)
