Friday, January 28, 2011:  It was out to dinner at the Nisswa American Legion Club about 18 miles north of Gilbert Lodge.  Executive Chef Thomas Johnson of American Gourmet Catering prepared the meal that night.  He is seen here next to a "hanging beef," which is one of his specialties and well liked by those who dine there.  In all, he said, the beef took 27 hours to slow-cook.

On the table, it was terrific.  The buffet menu that night included chicken and liver with onions, not to mention salad and dessert. 

Only 48 days until St. Patrick's Day!
