So, I visited Trail, BC for the first time in my life. I was sent there for work and here are a few pics from the trip. I know, the activity on this blog has been spotty the last few years, and I'm not promising to get back to a regular routine here, but here are a few pics from the trip, including pics of one of the best steaks I have ever eaten.
A pub I went to with my colleagues during lunch, pics of their food, not mine, lol!
A 2 meter long sturgeon that I saw in the Columbia river. The thing must have been at least 100 years old. It was massive, though hard to tell in these pics.
Despite being on travel status, I ate pretty frugally.
Hard to believe this massive fish stayed alive with this zinc/lead smelting plant right here in the middle of town.
Nice view from the office.
Columbia Steakhouse and Bar in the Best Western. Pic of the private dining room, snapped this pic because the regular room was full of people and I didn't want to bother blurring out everyone's face.
I don't normally eat salad, but since the hotel gave me a coupon towards an appetizer, I used it on something somewhat healthy, and this Wedge Salad, with ranch sauce that was made in-house, was probably the best salads I've ever had. Topped with crumbled blue cheese, and bacon....It was worth going just for this.
Behold, the 18oz center-cut ribeye.
Just the right color and temp, nice crust on the outside, this thing was one of the juiciest, tastiest steaks I've ever had. It was so flavorful, just the right about of char to give ever bite that smoky flavor, seasoned to perfection, nice mix of lean and fat. It was truly an experience like none other. Even the grilse tasted good, and yes, I ate it all.
No, I didn't have room for the chocolate cake, but I ordered it anyway.

No, I didn't fly in this on the way back.
