I went to lunch at The Breadfruit. It was around 1:35pm when my lunch date and I entered the tiny but warm restaurant. We had the place to ourselves. Our waitress was great. Right away she explained the menu and sold us on a couple of mocktails. I had the Carrot juice and my date had the Kiwi Pineapple Quencha. The carrot juice had coconut milk, nutmeg, and vanilla mixed in. It was tasty. I love anything with coconut milk even carrot juice. My guest's drink had kiwi and pineapple nectar and was garnished with a piece of sugar cane. My guest gnawed on the sugar cane to give it a whirl. She liked her drink too.
We split a House Tropical Salad to start. The greens and veggies were very crisp and the fruit was juicy. The ginger poppy seed vinaigrette was refreshing and I couldn't place the zing to the dressing. I asked our waitress and she informed me it was the orange zest I was tasting. Of course.
I ordered the Jerk Chicken and my guest ordered the Coconut Curried Tofu. The chicken was wonderfully spiced. The coleslaw was not wet. Which I liked. Much more healthier. The roasted corn had a hint of something else. Maybe coconut. The corn just had a nice flavor. I haven't enjoyed corn on the cob that much in a long time. I saved the grilled pineapple for last and it was worth the wait. My date's tofu was excellent. It was like tender pieces of meat. Again with the coconut. She let me have a taste. Yum.
I am glad I finally made it to The Breadfruit. I knew it was there, just never got around to it. I am glad I went. I will be back and I will add it to my lunch rotation.
