Review from Fenny L.
I want the child to be named "Fenworth". That's a brilliant name, don't you think? Doesn't the name inspire confidence and visions of greatness? To name your child "Fenworth", is like...naming your child after Tallulah Bankhead. You just can't go wrong.
Alas, Jake K does not see it that way. However, despite Jake's hard crusty exterior, I know that ultimately, his fabulous wife will be the one to decree the offspring's name. And what better way to get on her good side - and to ensure the fabuloucity of "Fenworth" as the name of their child - then to throw her a baby shower?!?!?! Yes, I know, I'm a genius...as would be any child named "Fenworth".
Of course, this is Jake, and he's so fabulous that he can't have his wife have a baby shower in a plebian location, like at a bar (yes, I have hosted a baby shower at a bar. Yes, I am just that obnoxious). No, he got us a room at the Army Navy Country Club.
Now, yes, it's a country club, so a certain level of...panache and decorum has to be expected, however, I was mostly blown away by how nice and unobtrusive the staff were. We had the Williamsburg room, which was set up beautifully. We asked for extra tables (for the cake), and one magically appeared. When the guests started arriving, a bartender quietly made her way to the bar station and started to pour. We opted for the Sunday brunch buffet (easier, as we weren't sure about everyone's dietary needs), and the staff there were also friendly, the service was fast, and everything just fell together quite nicely. When it was time for the champagne toast (the mother-to-be had sparkling cider), with a nod, the servers brought over glasses of deliciously cold bubbly! Wheee!
However, despite the awesomeness of the shower...Jake K and his adorably funny wife still won't name their child "Fenworth". Obviously, they have no vision.
Fenworth. Just think about it. Really. -
Review from Jake K.
Always a good time and well worth the dues. I certainly get my money's worth from the golf courses and enjoy the free hors d'ourves happy hour on Fridays. Dining is never a disappointment and when I have hosted events here, the service never fails me.
The only reason I don't give it a full five stars is because the condition of the locker rooms - at this time, they're building the new club house and I'm on a "wait and see" for the fifth star.
