Read the fine print

My husband and I always thought that La Maison was a French restaurant. It isn't.

    When I saw the thumbnail on the portal, I thought maybe you were vacationing in France!

    Funny!

    Does La Maison not simply mean "the home"?

    And to think I've been looking for the best steaks all over the U.S. and they've been in the P.I. the whole time. :-)

    So how good is the food?

    btw nice detective work on the award. I had a feeling it was tagalog and for a moment after I gave it out I hoped it wasn't bad words. :-)

    Wait a minute Hilda, maybe when you get their steak you can get "La French Fries." :-)

    You're not the only one who thought it was a French restaurant. Is the food any good?

    Dear Hilda! This is gorgeous place - beautiful palms in the reflection! Ribs, steaks - can't go wrong with those :)

    It isn't? I guess the words are a twist of some sort, on reality.

    Look's like they are appealing to everybody. Very odd!

    Hmmm... La Maison is an odd name for a steakhouse. But I guess if it keeps the customers rolling in, that's all that matters!

    I would think that those looking for a good steakhouse might pass it by thinking of haute cuisine. LOL

    Never judge a book by its cover or a restaurant by its sign!
