Summer Dining - It's Officially The Season

It's that time of year to enjoy outdoor dining. What could be better than a casual dinner with a friend at WhoopemUp in Waitsburg. The drive up-valley through rolling hills of farmland set the tone for a relaxing evening. The patio was the perfect spot to enjoy our summer meal.

Everything looked so appetizing that we had to share. I highly recommend the ravioli, which is not my usual summertime meal of choice, but it was light, lovely, and passing it up was not an option.

We savored every bite of The Whoopemup Ravioli - housemade filled with fresh Monteillet Farm goat cheese, leeks and herbs and topped with fennel creme sauce and preserved lemon. AND The Slippery Tail Lobster Ravioli with reggiano parmesano and sweet peppers. We also shared, and devoured The Sunday Best Lemon Chiffon Cake - with strawberry mascarpone, frozen mousse, and seasonal berry compote.

I encourage all to make the drive from Walla Walla, or anywhere in the valley, and enjoy a delightful summer dinner at The WhoopemUp.
