On our way to see the lights at Anheuser Busch Brewery, we stopped in for an early dinner at Frazer's Good Eats. It had been a favorite back when it went by the interesting moniker, Frazer's Traveling Brown Bag.
Frazers Good Eats
The first thing we realized is that you want to go with the daily specials. As the waiter listed the mouth watering soups, salads, appetizers, and entrees, I knew making a choice would be difficult. We decided to start with a reasonably priced wine "Shebang" a Zin/Syrah blend from California. Since it was a house poor, we were able to taste before committing to the bottle.
We started with a puff pastry full of mushroom goodness. It was light, flaky, and creamy on the inside. It was truly special. I ordered the lamb chops that came with a mint glaze, served on a bed of mashed potatoes and topped with perfectly one asparagus spears. I love lamb and it had been too long since I had found chops served this well. My wife had the duck which was done French country style with a touch of orange, lavender and thyme. I had taste and it was succulent.
We loved the experience. The decor is absolutely beautiful with a stone washed look on the walls, elegant maroon plush curtains softening up the corners. The tables and chairs were soft shades of maroon and green and the whole thing was soft, welcoming and a lovely haven on a chilly rainy evening. We will be back so stay tuned for more.
