| - This is my third time coming here, suppose its time to officially write a review. Please note that I've been coming here only on the -licious events, more details below.
The store is located up a set of stairs and through a candle lit corridor where the host would show you to your seat. I quite appreciate the cleanliness and setup of the tables, uniforms of the servers and lighting.
The server showed us where to get our own appetizer on the center floor where you can choose between many different types of salads, cold cuts, mussels, smoked salmon. My favourites here are the avocado salads and the mango salads which both tasted nice and refreshing. I knew I would be down to eat alot of meats so be prepared to down some salads ahead of time. The smoked salmon and capers were better than the grocery store quality I feel.
Finally the server brought a plate slider with chimichurri sauce (yum), rice/bean mixture, fries and the amazing deep fried banana which I asked for seconds - they're perfectly fried with a crispy outside and a sweet gooey center.
The rotations for the cuts of meats that came last Wednesday night consisted of: top sirloin(alright), garlic beef (good), chicken wings (meh), sausage (meh), chicken parmesan (no).
I was hoping for more garlic beefs but they didn't come more than twice. However nearing the end of the night there was a new couple that came and the server quietly brought up a skewer for them which carried fillet mignon. We quickly asked for some and he quickly brought it back to the kitchen afterwards.
The fillet mignon was wrapped in a layer of bacon. It was quite good but I felt that the fat and salt from the bacon was abit overwhelming and the meat was not as tender as I hoped. Overall strong flavours but there was hint of overpoweredness from the salt and oil.
Finally the pineapples.. They're to die for. Yes yes and yes. Such a simple dish and they have mastered the perfect combination of sugars and cinnamon to make it taste just perfect!
Overall price after tax and tips for two comes down to $100 for winterlicous - note that they automatically put up the tax and tips. Which I feel is fair since the servers do have to come make many trips. They're always happy to serve you foods too. Definitely a 10/10 for the service every time. I even remember the time 2 years ago where they had a dance performance in the middle of the room.
However I have to dock down a couple stars this time as the selection of meats on the Wednesday night was very lacking. Perhaps there are better selections on the weekends or busy nights.
Also they don't accept Amex :(.
