Quite often, the Wise Choice Divas find dishes they love while the Too-Afraid-to-Try-Outside-the-Box Divas aren\u2019t impressed with what they picked. It\u2019s hit or miss. This month\u2019s restaurant of choice may have been one of those. One that a few of us are excited to return to, a few of us that will stop in if it\u2019s convenient, and a few of us that will keep on driving by. But for this Diva, it\u2019s a restaurant I will never forget.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>We met up at The Tap restaurant on Elm Street, just off Highway 370, in St. Charles. A couple Divas arrived early to be able to get us a large enough table. This is another one of those restaurants that don\u2019t take reservations. I\u2019ll say it again. Why not allow reservations? Many times, we choose not to go to a place for that reason solely.<\/p>\n<p>This place is one of those places with beer tappers at the tables. From the looks of some participating tables, it\u2019s a fun way to enjoy happy hour and beyond. We were able to take advantage of happy hour specials, and we were not sitting in the bar. This rarely happens to us. We were amazed. A few discounted cocktails are always a good thing.<\/p>\n<p>Our waitress was attentive, patient, and friendly. She thoroughly shared with all of us specialty items from the menu and off. We ordered one of the house specialties, the Toasted Ravioli, and they were huge. Huge like Lombardo\u2019s who has the best toasted ravs around, and good, but not as good as Lombardo\u2019s.\u00a0\u00a0 We could have skipped the Nachos. The chips were soggy, and the cheese was thick and gummy.<\/p>\n<p>When it was time to order our dinners, this is where the true disappointment set in. The Tap has a huge smoker out front. They claim it\u2019s one of the largest, and &#8220;they know how to use it.&#8221; Unfortunately, they should have used it a little longer this day. The smoked barbecue brisket special that the waitress did a fabulous job of selling to us was all gone\u2026at 6:30 in the evening. How does that happen? Isn\u2019t dinnertime typically between 5:30 and 8?\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Maybe they should have considered a different dinner special rather than one that would run out so early.<\/p>\n<p>So many Divas were so excited to try the special that it wasn\u2019t going to matter what they ordered instead. Regardless, their food would just be average.\u00a0\u00a0 Just okay.<\/p>\n<p>The Chicken Modiga with broccoli, mushrooms, and provolone in a white wine lemon sauce was served over garlic mashed potatoes, and the plate was practically licked clean. The Crunchy Buffalo Chicken sandwich in a wing sauce and topped with cheddar and bacon hit the spot.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re a little adventurous, try the Hawaiian Chicken sandwich that\u2019s served with a spicy pineapple sauce, a slice of pineapple, and bacon jam. For the &#8220;most for your money&#8221; meal, get the Tap Mega B.L.T. sandwich. It\u2019s made with regular bacon and candied bacon and topped with bacon jam, tabasco aioli, and, of course, lettuce and tomato. It\u2019s so huge the Thrifty Diva was able to make two more meals out of it, and she loved it!<\/p>\n<p>The Cobb Salad was just average, but the house dressing was amazing. It\u2019s a white balsamic vinaigrette. The French Dip sandwich was average too as well as the Crispy Fried Chicken Salad. Sometimes average is okay, but many times it\u2019s a disappointment, especially when you were excited for the special of the day.<\/p>\n<p>This Diva night was far from average for me. It was to be another momentous evening. My life was changing again. After dinner, a few of us were heading to my house to shave my head. Although many of the Divas couldn\u2019t believe I was shaving off my hair when I still had so much, they couldn\u2019t tell just how thin it had gotten. And losing your hair is life-changing.<\/p>\n<p>But that\u2019s not why I\u2019m going to remember the Divas at The Tap. The Mom Diva shared a story with us. The Daughter Diva had been in a severe car accident many years ago. She was in a coma, and they feared she\u2019d not recover. A friend brought the Mom Diva water of Lourdes, the place in France where the future St. Bernadette had been visited by the Virgin Mary several times. While in the hospital, the Mom Diva prayed over her very injured daughter and blessed her with the water. I\u2019m happy to say that today her daughter is a beautiful, thriving, young woman we\u2019re proud to have as a Dining Diva.<\/p>\n<p>This night, on the perfect bench outside of The Tap, the Dining Divas prayed over me and blessed me with water from Lourdes. It was a very powerful and comforting moment. And definitely, better than average. Outstanding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dining Divas By Lisa Kampeter It\u2019s not uncommon for the Dining Divas to have supper together and not be wowed by the restaurant.
