This restaurant was adjacent to my hotel. Four Points, Sheraton, Prince George, BC.

The food was surprisingly good.

Chicken and vegetables in peanut sauce.

Why "surprisingly," I'm not sure. I wasn't thinking that much fine cuisine happened above the 50th parallel. Was wrong.

Last night at Nandi's (Indian) in Kamloops, BC was also terrific.

High food standard TIMDT would have liked them both. Too bad she doesn't like sitting behind me on the bike and doing four hundred motorcycle miles every day.
