Suite 1901


Suite 1901 is under new management. Music to the ears of many living in Cheyenne! Mike and I decided to have dinner there last weekend and want to share our experience with you.

We started off with the baked brie appetizer. A wedge of brie wrapped in puff pastry, topped with a grape balsamic reduction and sugared walnuts.  Absolutely delicious!! We both loved this and it was probably the best thing we had!



I (Mike) had the 24-Hour Chicken which was very good!  Brined for 24 hours in a 5-tea spice mix, this half chicken had been completely de-boned and was extremely moist, tender, and really rich flavors!  I loved their Yukon Gold mashers - who can go wrong with the buttery, fluffy mashed potatoes! 


I (Jeran) had the chicken Florentine crepe which consisted of a savory crepe filled with big chunks of chicken, gooey white cheese, and spinach; served with a side of roast vegetables. I thought it was tasty but had a couple of "gristly" pieces of chicken and wish the kitchen had been a bit more meticulous about the chicken meat that went into the crepe.

Dessert was probably the biggest disappointment. We ordered the pineapple upside down creme brulee cake.  The cake was dry and crumbly. The creme brulee layer was virtually non existent. You certainly couldn't detect any creme brulee flavors and the pineapple was dry and chewy.



Just a note on Suite 1901 and our experience there.  We are really excited about the new management and the place has the same great ambiance it's always had.  We both decided to step outside our 'norm' with our ordering.  We both have our favorites and rather than always having a steak or a burger, we wanted to make sure we were experiencing the whole menu and trying new things.  That being said, next time I think we'll go back to the sure thing and have what we both know we love!
