| On June 29, 2009 the two RV
Gypsies, who are fast becoming professional travelers, ate at Cafe Michele
in Talkeetna, Alaska. The food was a bit pricey, but yet quite reasonable
for the quality and quantity of the food. The server, Janus, was professional,
personable and excellent. The atmosphere was very nice. Therefore, this
restaurant gets an excellent rating in the opinion of the two RV
Gypsies. In fact, the food and service was so good that the two
RV Gypsies ate there several more times, despite the price. |
| Their website says they were voted one of the
Top Ten Restaurants in Alaska, 2001 by the Food network and they were featured
on the Food networks's "best of..." "Places to Take Dad",
2002 - Check their website for further information. |

| A strange thing - Karen was able to photograph
some of the food they were served, but one main menu item was unable to
be photographed. The camera would not allow Karen to take the photo. Yet,
when the salt shaker was put in the same spot as the dinner plate was, the
camera snapped the photo. Then Karen replaced the dinner plate in the same
spot the salt shaker was and the camera would not snap. The dinner plate
was moved in every spot of the table, but the camera refused to allow the
dinner plate to be photographed. Every setting on the camera was tried,
but the camera would just not photograph the main course that day. WEIRD!

| As stated above, the two RV Gypsies
returned to Talkeetna for an overnight stay on July
28th just to have lunch and dinner at Cafe Michele again - below-
the lunch salad and a very happy Lee with the flowers from the salad. |
 |
 |
| After lunch, the two RV Gypsies informed them
that they would return for dinner. The table was all set up and reserved
for them when they arrived. They may be tourists but they sure were made
to feel at home at Cafe Michele. |

| A wonderful bread pudding - and once again,
a very happy Lee with the decoration from the bread pudding. |

| Karen Duquette and Janus - son of the owner,
Michele - cook and server. Since Karen and Lee were celebrating the anniversary
of their first date 44 years ago, Janus gave them two hearts to keep. If
you go to Cafe Michele, please tell Janus we sent you - the two crazy RVers.
