Christmas Dinner @ Mastro's Ocean Club in The Woodlands, Texas

Eric chose Mastro's Ocean Club

for our Christmas Dinner.

The entrance is elegant.

Eric & I are warmly welcomed.

One of the Dining Rooms

This is the perfect restaurant for our Christmas Dinner.  The setting is elegant.  Live music drifts through the Dining Rooms. We are looking forward to an evening of Fine Dining. 

Our Server, Jada, went through the Menu with us and answered our questions.  

The Bread Basket: Baguette Toast, 

Soft Pretzels, Pumpernickel Raisin

Bread & Ciabatta Roll

Mastro's Ocean Club has an extensive Wine List.  I chose Chateau Ste. Michele from the Columbia Valley in Washington.  Eric chose Pinot Noir from Argyle Winery Reserve in the Willamette Valley in Oregon.

Our Appetizers...

Shrimp Cocktail with Lemon

Wedge & Horseradish

The Dry Ice creates an "other

worldly" presentation.

A Lump Crab Cake with 

Lemon Wedge, Guacamole,

& Remoulade Sauce

Mastro's Ocean Club's Dining Areas are dark.  My eight-year-old cell phone's camera doesn't do our Dinner justice.

Lockhart Texas Quail Knots &

Crispy Garlic Tuna Sashimi

Many dishes arrive at our table and are discretely removed by Lydia.  Jada and Lydia work together to ensure that diners have exceptional dining service.

Heirloom Tomatoes, drizzled

with Balsamic Reduction &

Burrata Cheese

Our Christmas Dinner was beautifully prepared.  Each Appetizer, Entree, Side Dish, and Dessert was oh, so delicious.  

I thanked Jada and Lydia for their kindness and expertise.  I asked Jada to thank The Back of The House Staff for producing our lavish Dishes.

We brought food home.  Tomorrow we feast again!

My last photo at Thousand Trails

Colorado River RV Resort.

Watching Deer is a favorite

pastime here. 

Eric turns onto Texas State 

Highway 71 East.

We follow signs from here to Interstate 10 East.

Driving through a large

Road Construction Site

This Reinforced Earth Wall

will support the ramp  to a

new bridge.

Interstate 10 East is a

 very busy road.

We are driving on State Highway

99 Toll Road to avoid heavy 

traffic in Houston.

This EZ PASS allows us to

easily travel on Toll Roads

in Texas.

An older Winnebago Brave is

being towed 

I remember our motorhome 

was towed in Washington.

Following signs to

  Interstate 45 North

And heavy traffic...

This Drywall is art in transit.

Our Exit to Seven Coves Road

We drive to Thousand Trails

Road.
