CopperBlue (A Grub Shack)

Last night on a whim, after driving by this new place when picking up empty wine bottle for the bottle tree (another blog altogether), I notice this new place was open. Not too many cars in the parking lot so I got on the phone and called Mark to make a last minute date. Emmy was working all weekend and Michael was at a friends house for the night...why not...practicing for that empty nest that will come some day. So we set off for 900 Main Street, Milford.


Boy, was I shocked...in just about an hour the parking lot was full! When we entered a very polite hostess greeted us and handed us a menu so we could check out the idea behind the restaurant. It is a good story and if you click on the picture above you will be able to read about it.

We decided that if we were going to write a blog about Eating Our Way Thru OHIO, we should be willing to try new things. I swallowed hard and said okay. I'm not to adventurous...not at all!

We asked to see the kids menu...I think Michael would give this a two thumbs us...so guess we are just going to have to come back again....I hope it is sooner than later...the hot rolls are to die for! They are almost dead on Mark's grandmothers rolls.

I guess I am going to have to get over the embarrassment of taking pictures in public. I felt really strange. Now I really have to get familiar with the setting on the camera. The decor is very comfortable. The wait staff wore crocs and jeans with a bright green smock. They are all friendly and the service was just right.

Mark and I split the Wedge Salad. I was refreshing and half was filling. Come to think of it, we split everything.

Mark ordered the Blackened Meatloaf and after researching I suggested that he order the fries. Good choice...we split those too. The meatloaf was different from the meatloaf I make. It seemed a little mushy...like the meat had been ground too fine. The taste was good...earthy and spicy.

I ordered the Spicy Burger with grilled caramelized onions. And it was to die for. The pickles were delicious too. And I didn't mind the ketchup and the little bit of red in the meat. It was all good. And then there were the sweet potato tater tots. A little sweet and a little kick from the Cajun seasoning.

You can't miss the big blue sign that hangs out front. The atmosphere was nice...no one was a hurry, very laid back. We were in and out in little over an hour for under $25.00. We definitely plan to make a return visit but not until we have tried a few other new places on our list of many. I never realized how many places there are to eat. I don't get out much!
