Looking at the appetizing menu, I spotted an item that piqued my mouth-watering interest: meatloaf. I asked the wait person what she thought of the meatloaf. Her eyes lit up and said it was a good choice. The eyes did it and so I ordered.
What I got was a handsome looking chunk of beef, the always required mashed potatoes with gravy, and a generous serving of vegetables. Flat Tail's meatloaf is all natural beef, seasoned with their own house spices. What makes this meatloaf work is the glazed ketchup that was just like mom used to make.

The vegetables were sautéed perfectly to a firm-and not soggy-crispness. And meatloaf would not be complete without real mashed potatoes. These were real. How could I tell? Topped with beef gravy, the mashed potatoes had just the right amount of lumps to qualify them as "just like mom used to make".
For my beer, I chose the Bourbon Porter. This is more of an after dinner, sipping brew, but I could not resist. The porter drank down thick and malty, sweet, and with those wonderful dulcet tones of bourbon.
