Red's in Ramsay is located at 1101 8th St. SE. We had eaten here before and enjoyed it. Red's is nestled in a residential part of 8th St. SE and has customer parking. If you have the luxury of being able to go during the week, you're much more likely to find a spot.
The restaurant has two separate rooms with the area at the back including counter diner seating. Red's has great natural lighting and the staff is very welcoming.
Perhaps one day I'll venture out of my comfort zone and try the Blueberry, basil and goats cheese stuffed French toast, but today I selected the three egg vegetarian omelette with spinach, red peppers, guacamole and cheddar cheese @ $17.50. It was flavourful and fresh tasting. My husband had the Inglewood Omelette with Spolumbo's Chorizo, mushrooms and Brie @ $17.95. Both meals were generous portions and our server was always near with the coffee pot. Some restaurants that are very popular have a "get busy and eat" vibe, but Red's has a relaxed atmosphere.
And no, I haven't forgotten about the BOOKS portion of this offering. I just finished reading Lethal White by Robert Galbraith (a.k.a. J. K. Rowling). This is the fourth Cormoran Strike novel. The Cuckoo's Calling, was published in 2013. The Silkworm (2014) and Career of Evil (2015). The characters are so well developed that by the time you're a quarter of the way in, you feel like you know them intimately. If you haven't read these delicious works of crime fiction, "shut the front door" and get to an Independent Book Store to start a journey into the mind and brilliance of Cormoran Strike. Shelf Life Books, Pages on Kensington and Owl's Nest Books are great places to visit.
No need to read in order but the main characters do evolve with time and experience.
WELCOME
Reading is a passion of mine and in the past, I've shared some of my favourite reads. My reading interests have changed over the years and although I still enjoy a good self-help book, fiction is a solid second.
There you have it! Two of my favourite things, eating out and reading!
