I don’t generally enjoy hotel restaurants. The food is usually average. The service, less than average and the venue is bland. Due to my schedule last week, I had to dine at the restaurant at the Valley River Inn three times. I was pleasantly surprised.
Writing posts 6-7 days a week is a tough task, I won’t lie. With the gift of time I had that morning, I decided to have a leisurely breakfast and catch up on my internet empire at the same time. My server was polite, non-intrusive and knowledgeable about the menu.

The hotel restaurant, Sweetwaters on the River, is located right alongside the Willamette River. With a great view of the water, it was a perfect way to relax and spend my morning on the road.

Breakfast consisted of some scrambled eggs and apple crepes. The crepes were delicious, served alongside a Mascarpone Creme. I couldn’t finish them, they were too rich, but absolutely divine. I later had lunch there too, outside on the patio.
A quick post today as it’s been a busy travel week.
Have a great weekend, what adventures are you going to have?
