Meats were done very well too..
…the Grilled Lamb was one of the stellar dishes that night, though the BBQ ribs were dissappointingly dry.
The Cajun chicken fared better………
I love the Pear & Berry Salad..……..
Desserts were sweet but forgettable, except for the “That Chocolate Thing“, which was akin to a molten lava in a glass.
Food verdict:
The Far Out Dip is by far my personal favourite. During the session, it came together as part the Run Across America Sampler. Think mushy Spinach quiche filling; (for the lack of a better description), creamy & rich, all blended into a dip which consist of roasted red peppers, artichokes & Monterey Jack Cheese. Supposedly paired with homemade tortilla chips, I just dug in on it’s own, for it’s that :good:
On the whole, food were generally faultless & seafood served were fresh (I would have complained if otherwise!). Although I’m not a shrimp fan, I still enjoyed the many variations of shrimps, from deep fried ones (which is basically coated in different batter), to chilled shrimps, shrimps in cream sauce (from the linguini) & chargrilled ones in bourbon sauce, which was delicious! So essentially, there is something for everyone, even for a non-shrimp fan.
But if you are really really allergic to seafood & got tricked/dragged/blindfolded into Bubba Gump, fret not! Just zoom in for the grilled lamb. Done medium, it’s tasty enough for it’s price. I wouldn’t personally recommend the BBQ ribs and chicken, as I find the ribs dry and flaky. The chicken was fine though; as it was tender and well-marinated.
A vegan? On a diet? Constipated? 😉
Salads are the perfect remedy then! Though it’s just normal lettuce (seriously, restaurants serving salads can take a point or 2 from California Pizza Kitchen, whose salads is truly worthy to be defined as salads; where there’s more variety of greens than just the cheap lettuce!), what got me hooked was the sweetish, slightly tangy raspberry vinaigrette which was a refreshing twist to the customary boring balsamic vinaigrettes.
The charbroiled chicken is tasty, the strawberries & pears sweet & the glazed pecans crunchy. Overall this makes for a satisfactory salad :good:
Note: There are 2 other salads options here as well.
I ordered a Alabama Sweet Smoothie (RM11.90) – Peanut Butter, choc and non-fat Vanilla Frozen Yogurt and found it thick, rich & as good as a smoothie should be.
