Cafe at Adele's
The first thing I did when I got to Carson City was grab dinner at a lovely little restaurant just outside of the downtown area called Adele’s. This is one of the fanciest restaurants in all of Carson City and certainly not a place where you would go eat alone, therefore I got a handful of looks while sitting in a corner table snapping photos. The restaurant is located inside of a quaint old building with beautiful decor.
Sadly, since it was late at night and I only had my iPhone camera on me, the photographs did not come out as well as I had liked.
My waitress was very pleasant, and I was impressed that she had essentially the entire menu along with all of the specials memorized. This is, of course, common in large fancy restaurants with experienced wait-staff but I was not expecting to receive this level of service in a small town like Carson City.
I started off dinner with a bowl of lobster bisque, with freshly caught lobster from the nearby Nevada desert.
Next I tried a fillet (which was actually local) that was smothered in a delicious sauce and came with grilled lettuce and spiraling tower of mashed potatoes.
Dinner was delicious, but the part of my meal that I will remember forever is the heavenly and mouth watering home made strawberry shortcake that I had for desert. I would literally fly back just to have another bite of that strawberry shortcake again.
The first restaurant that I ate at in Carson City left a great impression. Adele’s is certainly worth checking out if you are ever in the area.

Here’s Jony Ive in his Stripe interview: What we make stands testament to who we are. What we make describes our values. It describes our preoccupations. It describes beautiful succinctly our preoccupation. I’d never really noticed the connection between th…

As a journalist by training, I have what you might call an addiction to facts. I believe that there are things that are true and things that are not, and that we can determine one from the other through observation, rational thought, and meticulous resear…
