Sego Review

This weekend, the hubby and I went on a double date to Ketchum's lastest and greatest restaurant---Sego.  We dropped the kids off at the monthly YMCA's Saturday Sitters and enjoyed the next 3 hours of adult time.

We have heard mixed reviews about Sego, so I was ready to experience it all and form my own opinion. We arrived at around 6:30  and the restaurant had about 5 other couples there.  Apparently, we beat the rush.  We were greeted promptly by several people--one to take our coats, one to pour our wine, one to pour our water and our waitress to tell us about the specials.  So far so good!  As of last night, Sego had not received their liquor license, but they were hoping that this is the week.  For the mean time, they charge a $15 cork fee per bottle.  

The men in our group started off with an appetizer and with each bite they took, they expressed that they were in Heaven.  According to them, it was the best meal ever!  

Shortly after, our meal arrived presented so beautifully. I ordered the Vegetable dinner and it came on a wooden slab.  I wish I could eat all of my meals like that.  The Vegetable dinner consisted of 3 different bowls composed of varying cooked veggies and grains.  I am a red meat eater, but wanted to try this healthy alternative and boy, I was not let down!  Delicious!!  My husband ordered a meat dish and let me sample his as well, barely though.  Every bite I took was wonderful and an explosion of flavor.  Completely unique and beautiful!  

Then, it came time for dessert.  We still had some room in our bellies and had heard that their dessert was a must try.  My husband and I split the Chocolate x3.  Homemade hot chocolate with chipolte and homemade marshmellows, homemade ice cream that was the best ice cream I have EVER tasted, plus a chocolate mouse that was so divine and so rich.  

We were all very pleased with Sego and proud that it is in our town.  We will be back again and again to try their local and fresh food!  Can't wait to try their summer menu.

Well done Sego!
