Information on the following area restaurant was provided by staff writer Leslie Kelly.

THE MOON TIME

(1602 Sherman, Coeur d’Alene, 667-2331) This pub is bright and cheery with sunny yellow walls, antique tables and wood floors. Thriving flowerpots greet diners at the entrance and a savory menu encourages patrons to linger over a pint inside. The creative menu is a perfect fit for those cold brews. It starts with some interesting salads, which can be ordered as a first course or as an entree. The other offerings include some of the tastiest sandwiches I’ve ever sunk my chompers into. Of course, with all sorts of savory ingredients crammed in between two pieces of bread, you can expect a sauce-running-downyour-wrist mess. The fresh sheet offers the kitchen the chance to have some fun. Offerings might include pasta with a creamy, roasted garlic sauce and topped with toasted walnuts, Thai clams with black bean dipping sauce, a lamb and plum stew or a cobb salad sandwich.
