Sammys Outdoorsman & Giant City Lodge

Yesterday we took out nephew & his wife (niece) on a ride down through Hutchens Creek but couldn't go all the way up due to a downed tree that a fellow jeep driver told us about.  They did get to experience the driving through the creek and we got out and looked around some.  We backtracked and went to the Ware Market.
After we left there I mentioned a place where we could get a drink and appetizers.  They were all about that so we stopped at Sammy's Outdoor Bar formally known as the Revlon.  The three of them got a 32oz bucket of purse snatcher which was some kind of mixed drink with a story to go with it.  I went with beer of course.  We ordered some mushrooms, egg rolls and cheese sticks.  The mushrooms were okay but nothing special.  I liked the egg rolls a lot but didn't try the cheese sticks.  Typical bar frozen appetizers.
Next up we took some back roads and ended up going up 51 to Giant City and then to the lodge.  They had Abita Amber  on draft so me and Lisa had that, not really sure what Jay and Nicole had.  We got an appetizer sampler where the mushrooms were a lot better and I also really like the corn fritters.  I ordered a chicken breast while Lisa ordered chili and a wing.  She really liked the chili but both of us thought the chicken tasted like it had been sitting for awhile.
Then it was time to rescue Mike for their kids but not before Jay swung by DQ for a night cap.
