Last weekend - smoked and seared SRF ribeye caps, rosti and sautéed spinach. The kids love rosti, so fortunately they help with the prep parts I don’t like

McP’s Taphouse, South Lake Tahoe CA:

definitely my favorite overall eatery in South Lake Tahoe. Across the street from our hotel Margaritaville.

I won’t start on the salad until my thumb stops bleeding. But here’s the carrot-ginger vinaigrette.

Salad, cauliflower, pizza and a cocktail. It was what was for dinner last night! Tasty enough. B+ (not starring the meal)

I'd be curious if you could find a pizza place in the inner city (near the bell tower) or maybe a Uyger version of a pizza.

Pizzeria da Nicola is inside the inner city walls a few blocks south of the Bell Tower. Good for people watching on the walk there and back, but watch out for the e-bikes!

Thanks. It's been years since I was there.... but wouldn't mind going again and finding something interesting... Uyger pizza for example.

Steak Salad w/ Chunky Blue Cheese dressing using the leftover Prime Ribeye with a hearty glass of 2023 Kirkland Vacqueyras - great pairing for a quick dinner for a hot summer day. (no photo - too darn hungry)
