We tried to do as little as possible today … until our evening Culinary Tour of Columbia. 2 1/2 hours, 1.5 miles walking, 5 stops. Kerrie was our tour guide.
1. Coley’s American Bistro.
Ham & Swiss sandwich, sweet potato tots, Dr Feelgood cocktail.
2. Boone Olive Oil Co for a round of tasting. There were about 50 choices like mushroom/sage, butter, blood orange, espresso.
3. Broadway Brewery: Citrus Quinoa Salad with El Dorado IPA,
then breaded pork tenderloin on grilled rye and a gyro w lamb with Boone Dog Brown Ale.
4. Nourish
Chicken salad with organic chardonnay:
and avocado mac and cheese with rioja wine.
This stop ended with a chocolate truffle (no pic).
5. Dog Master Distillery.
After an explanation of the distilling process for various liquors, we began tastings of 2 whiskeys, bourbon, 2 rums, and vodka – very small amounts.
To end our evening, Blackberry/lemonade/whiskey cocktail with a blueberry doughnut from Harold’s Doughnuts.
We waddled just 2 blocks back to our hotel. What a great experience!
