When our family started on this journey, we decided to start small, keep it simple, and not go into a lot of debt doing it.
I have been fascinated with all things food since I could pull the k**b on the T.V. and Julia Child would fill the screen and invite me into her kitchen.
We started with drinks and desserts, which was fun. Then we branched out to craft dogs and that was fun too. We were able to be really creative with that, and created some delicious menu items.
But... anyone that knows me can tell you that when I discover a delicious new dish or make an old favorite, I want to share it with everyone. I also don't want our kids to eat so many hot dogs 😉We had planned earlier in the year as we were booking events to keep July open to do a thorough review of what we had done so far. We put our heads together as a family to decide whether to proceed as is, make some changes, or get out. Well, we're in! So now instead of Old Time Treats we are Reds' Bistro!
We also have a new commissary in the works. Electric and plumbing are going in now! Once it is completed and passes inspection, we will be able to put our own USDA inspected meat from our own farm on the menu!
Our first event is next Saturday, August 9th at Meramec Spring park for the One Way Traffic concert. we are so excited to be back there! It is truly a state treasure.
We will be serving up Croque Monsieur, A muffaletta sandwich, a duck a l'orange hot link on a toasted french roll, garlic parmesan roasted potatoes and a delicious pasta salad! We hope to see you there! We put an emphasis on quality ingredients. And European butter. And cheese. I'm sure you can see where we're headed with this!

We had a great time at WhiteHart Renaissance Faire these last three weekends! A truly immersive Elizabethan experience.
We had our lovely neighbors, Ree Creations , who are the sweetest people putting out delicious food every day!
We debuted a couple of new dogs. This is the Fransk. Double all beef, 10 inch Nathan's hot dog, on a buttery, toasted baguette, topped with beschumel sauce, bacon and toasted sharp cheddar! The Royal Ducan, (that i didn't get a picture of) a 1/4 lb. duck hot link topped with truffle fois gras mousse, caramelized onions and fig jam for something fancy. Thank you to every patron who visited us! We cant wait to see you again!

We had a blast at Folky Fish Fest! Especially Jonathan who was able to participate in a ton of stringed instrument workshops and deepen his love for bluegrass music. Thank you to all of the amazing artists for sharing your time and talents with our boys! A really big thank you to all of the amazing patrons who stopped in for a bite too. (Let me just say, I think the vintage Watergate salad might just be making a comeback! )

We had a great time at Valhalla Blooms: A Viking Spring Faire presented by White Hart Renaissance Faire this weekend! The guests and hosts were some of the nicest people we've ever met, and the vendors are so gifted in their crafts. Thanks to our vendor neighbors Ree Creations who are so supportive to us always, and serve up the awesome tastes and smells! Thank you to Bryan and Michelle for having us out as vendors. You put on an amazing festival! And a special shout out to Doug who gave our son such a good archery and spear throwing lesson! You're an amazing teacher! Thank you Ellie’s Events for telling us about this wonderful fair. We saw your tails everywhere and they looked great!
