Dinner at Murph's Gaslight



We made some new friends, that were our neighbors for a few days at Emerald Desert.  Ginny and John Babel from Northern California.  Friday night was their last night in town, and they invited us to join them for dinner at one of their favorite  places to eat.     

Murph's Gaslight is located next to the Bermuda Dunes Airport.  If you didn't know it was there and  don't have GPS you just might miss it.  Pull into the drive and find the parking lot, you will realize this is a favorite of the locals.  They have a Pub and a "family style" restaraunt.  Dress casual and come hungry, you will not be dissappointed.  

Murph's is "famous" for their  "Original Pan Fried Chicken".  We had a coupon for $30 for two, which was a $10 savings off the regular price:)    We were greeted by a bubbly waitress, that  provided us with great service.

The Menu 

************

We started off with a pot of delicious homade clam chowder;  served with hot corn bread and a chilled  green salad.  The soup is brought to the table in a big soup pot with a ladle, so there is plenty for seconds!

Entree'
Fresh chicken pan-fried to crispy golden brown, served with creamy mashed potatoes, country gravy, black-eyed peas, fresh cooked sweet potatoes, hot buttermilk biscuits, butter and honey. 

Dessert
Fresh peach short cake with cream 

A huge platter of chicken was brought out for us to share and then when we are finished with the meal they bring out "to-go" bags for each of us and more chicken to top off the platter for us to bring home for lunch the next day!     

The food reminded me of "southern" cooking from back home in Tennessee.    "Yummy"

  1. Save a spot at the table for us. That sounds heavenly. So glad I did not make a new years resolution to diet.
