Trumpeter

Earlier today
Beers with Jason Myers at Corner Bar & Grill. Had intended Bastion, which was closed due to a broken water pipe.
Rainy day. Work was a bit slow, indeed. I'd recently completed the copying of all my French dip sandwich data from Blogger to Checkvist.
Planning to go here with Nate W. and Brent in early September. Looking at my earlier review makes me think it's not the best place for appetizers. May need to cancel.
Place
Not super busy at all. Very quiet. A few people here.
Service
Music
Throwbacks and Oldies
Gary Hoey, Stroke Me
Gimme Three Steps by Lynyrd Skynyrd
Come on Eileen
Stand by Me
Moved to "smooth jazz" just short of 5 pm.
Changed the mood. A couple in the corner was "making out" around this time.
Bar
Clean and nice. Well tended. Plenty of selection.
Food
Ordered Crimini Mushroom and Salmon Cake appetizers.
Crimini Mushrooms
Too few, rich, heavy and salty for my liking.
Greens with sweet balsamic vinegar did not resolve the richness issue I previously reported.
Salmon Cakes
1.5 initially. Was not impressed at all. May have even been disgusted by my first bites but I weathered and persevered.
Too fishy tasting initially for me, too soft in texture and even some mealiness. 🤢
Some crunchiness and chewiness detected. Limited, though. There might be hope??
Burnt bits
Good!
They grew on me, it turns out, and were actually decent.
3, perhaps? Maybe even a 4?
Need fresher fish and to focus on creating more crunch.
2.5
Drinks
Cold beer, good beer choices.
