| - Jared suggest we stop by Fez to say hello to Thomas and grab a quick bite after the Ignite Phoenix meeting we went to last night. (It was a Tuesday and pretty happening there). I have to admit, I was kind of craving thai food, but I allowed him to talk me into it.
I'm so happy I did because:
a) it's always great to see Thomas
b) service was better than ever - Brian was our server and David brought our food out when it came
and c) I tried 3 menu items that I hadn't tried before and enjoyed all of them!
We started with the Fez lettuce wraps... I loved the balance of the chicken with dried fruit, almonds, and pomegranate vinaigrette dressing. Different any others I've had since they are usually with mushrooms, water chestnuts, and more of an asian flavor.
Next we had the kisra & hummus - I missed this at the Elite event somehow, but wow - it was delicious! The garlicky hummus may not be so good for my breath, but it tasted amazing - I couldn't get enough! The kisra bread was really good too - I ate way too much!
Lastly, even though we probably didn't need anything else, we had the shrimp, eggplant & mushroom kibis - I didn't realize they were fried when I ordered them, but what the hell, right? A little fried food every now and then can't hurt! Plus, anything with eggplant is tops in my book! It is described as crispy roasted eggplant, mushroom and shrimp cakes with pesto herb aioli. It looks like crab cakes, but you can taste all of the ingredients in each bite. They were awesome too!
All in all, another fantastic "Fez"tivity!
