I haven't been to Belgo for a while and was just there today on a business lunch. They had a folded up menu that was wrapped around my napkin. It was a different approach to receiving a menu, that's for sure. Then, the waitress came round and gave us the specials and they have this 2 for $25 deal. You get to pick one of 3 appetizers and one of 3 entrees.
The 3 appys for today's deal were:
Tomato soup
Waldorf Salad
Coconut Shrimps
The 3 entrees for today's deal were:
Alfredo Chicken
Salmon
Flank Steak
I selected the Coconut Shrimp and the Flank Steak. I really liked the Coconut Shrimp sitting in a small mound of mesclun mix. Very tender shrimp shrouded with a coconut-flaked batter. The dip was soooooo good! Mustardly aioli of some kind. Delicious!
I had the Flank Steak and had it rare. It came with fingerling potatoes, brocolli, red pepper. Not too bad.
Dessert: The waitress recommended us the Creme Brulee with a twist. The custard part is dipped in chocolate, then the top part was caramelized. This chocolate-dipped custard sat on 3 strawberries on top of the round thin almond cake base. There was a mango dipping sauce decorated around it. Interesting dessert.
Service was good. The waitress kept checking to see if we needed anything and made sure we were happy with the food we had ordered.
