Hood, OR"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><strong>The Resort At The Mountain<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.theresort.com\/\">http:\/\/www.theresort.com\/<\/a><br \/>\n68010 E Fairway Ave<br \/>\nWelches, OR 97067-9708<br \/>\n(503) 622-3101<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nAhh Resort at the Mountain (RATM). This was the first deployment I did with the new project I was on, and I knew when I was done with this site that I needed to do more under this project. My meals are comp, and these hotels are NICE.<\/p>\n<p>This resort had recently been remade, and the restaurant was the hardest hit. They brought in an executive chef, new staff, and new lineups aiming for fine dining. I ate here several times during my stay which was a little over a week.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I can&#8217;t honestly recommend this for casual dining as I still got a receipt for my meal, so I&#8217;m well aware of what this should have cost me. If you&#8217;re on Mt. Hood and looking for a fiercely good meal and don&#8217;t mind the coin, absolutely go for it.<\/p>\n<p>My personal favorite was the New York strip. This sucker alone costs about $40, and it had a weird citrus tapioca sauce like thing on it which I felt was inappropriate until I tried it. I had this dinner more than twice during my stay. If you like steak this is for you. Like delicious meaty butter. During my stay I ate each entree at least once, but this is the one that sticks out in my mind, and the one I continued to order once I had completed the rotation.<\/p>\n<p>Primarily being a carnivore, I was hesitant to try any of the salads, but I did, as time was on my side and money wasn&#8217;t an issue. Their spinach salad got me in touch with god. No idea what was going on there, but it was awesome.<\/p>\n<p>Didn&#8217;t eat enough? Fine you beast. Their desserts are awesome too. At the time they were doing a &#8220;Brulee of the Day&#8221; and as expected, all of those were amazing too.<\/p>\n<p>Here is the downside. One meal consisting of the spinach salad, the NY strip, a brulee of the day, and a bowl of seafood chowder thrown in for good measure will run you around $75. Put a few Mint Juleps on there and you&#8217;re well over the $100 mark.<\/p>\n<p>PS: I would steal a car for one of their Mint Juleps<\/p>\n<p>-Rockstar<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Resort At The Mountain http:\/\/www.theresort.com\/ 68010 E Fairway Ave Welches, OR 97067-9708 (503) 622-3101 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,23,4,26,163,196,20,187,164,188],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-beef","category-delicious","category-dining-out","category-enjoyable","category-foodquality","category-french","category-johnreview","category-oregon","category-restaurants","category-welchesor"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=13"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":616,"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13\/revisions\/616"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=13"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=13"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/halfton.withbloodandthunder.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=13"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
