Fancy Midwest Dinner in St. Louis

This is by far my luckiest eating on the road week. After yesterday's Sun in San Fran lunch, my body had a system shock with St. Louis' -10 degrees temperatures. There was no way to venture out of the hotel in my Vancouver style attire, so room service was the only option.  I chose the meal based on the fancy dish names; who knew they would also look and taste so fancy...

Charlotte's House Salad

Baby field greens, granny smith apples, fresh raspberries (they tasted fresh), crumbled blue cheese, roasted walnuts and a freshly made raspberry vinaigrette.

Chicken Fricassee

Sauteed chicken breasts pieces with mushrooms, asparagus, pearl onions, spatzle and sage cream gravy. What a great combo, I should try replicating one day.
