Tonight, the poker group had a date with the Gonzo Grill. It's basically a restaurant operated out of a local chef's house. He takes reservations for 10 to 16 people, only on Friday and Saturday nights.
Part of our purpose was to persuade the guy to let us do a story on him. We failed, but I'm only sorta sorry. A story in the Eagle would destroy what he's doing (which TECHNICALLY is not on the up-and-up.) And what he's doing is pretty amazing.
This is the house. It's in Indian Hills. Doesn't look like a restaurant, does it?
This is the chef. He's a pretty interesting guy. He's remodeled his kitchen into a professional-grade workspace. Behind Joe's left shoulder is an eight-range gas pro-quality stove. 
Here's our first course -- Diver sea scallop ceviche, which was friggin awesome.
The main course was a churrasco ribeye with chimichurri sauce. My flash doesn't do it justice. I'm sorry I won't be doing this story, but not sorry that I'll be going back soon.He says he's done special weeknight parties for book clubs. Ladies??????
