Al Williams is a
man-about-town who’s often seen
enjoying the ambiance of downtown at
Brix. He loves the location and the
outdoor seating in spring and
summer. Just as comfortable in a
business suit or golf attire, Al
appreciates the "resort" feel of the
restaurant. But the food is what
impresses him most.
"They constantly alter
their menu with seasonal entrees and
entice you to experiment," explains
the dapper Mr. Williams. Asked to
select a favorite dish he’s able to
narrow his list to three... "They
have outstanding clam chowder! I
also enjoy their Ahi tuna appetizer
and their calamari."
Brix serves imported Grolsch beer
from Holland in porcelain-capped
bottles, one of the few places in
Coeur d’Alene to carry it.
"I’ve
never walked into the bar area
without either finding a friend
there or making a new friend before
I leave," claims Al. He enjoys the
piano bar or a casual meal in the
bar area, or a first class, upscale
meal in the dining room. The NIC
Booster Club oft en meets in either
the upper or lower level of the
restaurant.
Al notes the feature of
a flat-screen television tuned to
sports channels allows him to keep
up with his favorite Chicago sports
teams.
For a people-person like Al,
meeting out-of-town visitors or
people-watching the walking and
driving traffic with fellow locals, Brix is ideal.
