A personal blog detailing dining and eating experiences
Apparently this place is the first gourmet burger place in the Netherlands!
I got the cheeseburger. Overall, the burger was ok, but there were two reasons I didn’t fully enjoy it. The first is that the bread was toasted (which is not really used to with a burger). The second reason is that I think the cheddar cheese overpowered the burger (Swiss cheese might’ve been better to use. I think though that other people would enjoy the burger.
We came here to get some lunch.
Overall, they had great ribs, and most of the sauces were delicious.
We ended up getting the mix-rib combo, where they give you all 5 flavors, and it is good for two people.
From the picture of the food below and the menu, the order of the ribs follow the menu description. All but the Mexican sauces were great (perhaps it’s because of the green thing on top of it). the two top choices is the Smokey Original and the Sweet Honey.
We grabbed some very late night (5am) food here, since it was the only “food” place open near the night clubs.
I had a pepperoni pizza (that also had ham on it), and it was very tasty. Couldn’t stop myself from finishing it. Would definitely come back here for late night food.
We ate lunch at this cafeteria after exploring around Montserrat.
The rating for this place was 2.8. I would have to agree based on the pork and pasta quality. I ordered the 3 piece meal, and from the pork, chicken strips and pasta, the chicken strips were the only thing that was good. The pasta was ok, but something seemed off, and the pork was super hard and dry.
This is a great brunch place. I loved it the first time, and the second time did not disappoint.
The bottomless mimosa deal is definitely a good reason to go here. Only $22, and they are very good at refilling your drink.
The bacon in the middle of the first picture (not sure what it was called, but maybe millionaire’s bacon?) was really good.
We also ordered pad Thai. It also did not disappoint.
One interesting is the last picture, which was a shooter of some sort. It was a good start of the meal.
I would order everything pictured below again.
I’m surprised I have not posted about this place before.
To start, we got the Poke Nachos. They are a bit spicy, but overall, very delicious.
For my main I got the Lobster Garlic Noodle. It was a sizeable portion, and although I told myself I would not finish it, I ended up eating the while thing.
We also ordered beers, but honestly, don’t quite remember which one (they were also Oktoberfest specials). In the past I’ve also had some of their sweet martinis and old fashions, which are all very good.
Update 5/5/2019: I got the Vodka shrimp pasta, which I’ve had several times before. It’s great because you can choose the smaller sized portion, which makes it a lighter entry. Definitely recommend it.
Also, we got the lumpia shanghai to start as an appetizer. Don’t remember if it was great, but I believe I would get it again.
We stopped by this place for dinner on the way back from Napa.
Overall, food was good. I got the cheeseburger with cheese fries. It was a great combo.
Also, I liked the vibe since it was outside, and they had space heaters (and they do serve wine and beer).
Ended up here on a Friday night. We ordered 4 dishes between two people, which was enough. Overall, the dishes were pretty good, but the portion size was a bit small for the price. However, I’d still come back and order all of the same dishes.
For drinks, I got the Nonna’s Kiss (which was very tasty and sweet, and I like how the texture was a bit foamy/smoothy like), and the midnight fog (it was a tad bit too sweet, but I’d still get it again).
For the dishes, we got the wings (chicken was surprisingly not dry for wings, and the side sauce was good), the summer salad, the spinach dip, and the flat iron steak (got this one medium, which was the right decision).
Not my first time here, but this time around, I came here with my team.
Although this restaurant does not have as quite extensive menu compared to BJs, they do still have a full bar and I’m a fan of every dish I’ve had so far.
This time around, I ordered the sticky ribs and umami fried (fyi there is a similar order that has BBQ sauce. I didn’t get that one since I think the calorie difference was around 1000! And I still enjoyed the sticky ribs).
Update 4/6/2019: Ordered the Wok Teriyaki with shrimp. It tasted good, but I would probably still go with the ribs if you’re not trying to avoid meat. Also, got the wok calamari as an appetizer. Definitely I tell an app to order again. For dessert, got the banana pudding and s’mores cakes. I would get the s’mores cake again.
Hit this chain up while in Calgary. I originally wanted to check out the one in 8th or 10th (since they’re the one la that have he games), but they were closed (for Canada Day).
For a drink, I got an old fashioned. It was definitely one of the better ones I’ve had. For my meal, I got the Alberta Beef short rib bowl. It was almost like a Korean bipimbip, and it tasted delicious.
