HAD DINNER LAST NIGHT (CELEBRATING NANCY'S BIRTHDAY) AT "OFFSHORE
RESTAURANT" ALONG THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER AT BELLEVUE. BEAUTIFUL NIGHT TO DINE OUTSIDE ON THEIR LARGE DECK, ABOVE. WAS TOLD THAT THIS UPPER DECK WILL BE GLASS ENCLOSED FOR
WINTER-TIME DINING AS WELL. GOOD NEWS!
IN THE CENTER OF THE UPPER DECK PHOTO, NOTE THE WHITE STAGE WITH CANOPY (ON IT "LIVE" MUSIC ON WEEKENDS) AND IN THE BACKGROUND, A RIVER ISLAND. OFF TO THE RIGHT, THE OUTSIDE BAR USED ON WEEKENDS. THE COLORFUL PHOTO IS OF THE INSIDE BAR, JUST ACROSS FROM THE MAIN DINING ROOM. THEY WERE GETTING READY FOR A WEDDING RECEPTION THIS SATURDAY IN THEIR EVENTS CENTER BUILDING RIGHT NEXT TO THE RESTAURANT. IT SEATS AROUND 250. AND DURING THE SUMMER, WEDDING GUESTS CAN ALSO SIT OUTSIDE AND VIEW THE MISSISSIPPI. WE ARE FORTUNATE THAT JACKSON COUNTY BORDERS ONE OF THE GREAT RIVERS OF THE WORLD AND NOW FORTUNATE ALSO TO HAVE ANOTHER NICE RESTAURANT OVERLOOKING IT. THE NEW HOTEL JUST NORTH OF THE RESTAURANT IS GOING UP AND WILL BE OPEN IN 2013. STEVE AND DIANA JOINED US FOR DINNER AND WE ALL ENJOYED THE DELICIOUS FOOD AND EXCELLENT SERVICE. TRIED THEIR PEACH COBBLER DESSERT TOO....SUPER....DON'T PASS IT UP!
BELLEVUE IS AN EXCITING LITTLE TOURIST TOWN WITH A NEW THEME...
"BELLEVUE ROCKS". I ALWAYS ENJOY A VISIT THERE AND LAST NIGHT, A VISIT TO ONE OF OUR GOOD KMAQ ADVERTISERS MADE FOR ANOTHER FUN NIGHT. BEAUTIFUL BELLEVUE ALONG THE MIGHTY MISSISSIPPI RIVER!
