Z is for...

Zydeco!  Not the music, but the restaurant.  This is our favorite place to go as a family in Bend.  It's not your typical family restaurant.  This is a nice place and definitely caters to adults, but the menu is kid friendly with sides that kids like and the staff is always happy to see us.  If you ever make it to Bend, you should check it out.  It's not in the typical place you might look for a nice restaurant because it's sandwiched between a car dealer and a Burger King!  However, you won't be sorry you looked for it.

We went there the other night and had a very nice dinner.  We also managed to draw all over the table.  We usually fill the paper with drawings and hangman games.  Here's a testament to the food.  I complelely forgot to take photos of the dishes because they are so good there were mostly gone by the time I remembered.  If you do go try the Almond Wet Cake!  Another reason to go is the homemade dog biscuits available for free.  See, the restaurant is named after the family dog.  Awww, how sweet is that!
