To start we were handed menus that are made out of real books. 
When you open the books the menu is within the pages of the book. There are also book shelves and books all around. 
We ate on the outside patio. I enjoyed a glass of Riesling. It was a small glass of wine for $10.
I ordered the hummus plate which had cajun black bean & chic pea hummus with grilled pitas points. This was called "Arabian Nights," because each item on the menu is named after a story book. It was very good and the best part was appetizers were 1/2 off during Happy Hour (and there were $3 drafts). Steve and I split this plate. I may have been really hungry, but this was some of the best hummus I have had.
My entree was the Jack and the Beanstalk salad with an added portobello mushroom.
Steve ordered "the Fisherman and His Wife" which was Pretzel crusted grilled salmon served with potatoes and vegetables then finished with a mustard cream sauce, and I thought his plate looked blog worthy.
Time to sleep and get ready for an early morning for the Pittsburgh Marathon. I will be running the half marathon and my husband will be running the full Marathon.
(The "Steel" refers to Pittsburgh which is known as the Steel City).Good Night!
