| - Sometimes, it is just wonderful to be alive. Actually, all the time it's wonderful to be alive. Life is amazing, the weather is gorgeous outside, I am or think I am getting better at tennis, my girlfriend loves her job and I love that she is bringing in money for the first time in 5 years, 3 years later I can finally convince myself that bright red is not too girly a color for the car I drive, and I found a restaurant that serves food so good that I want to photoshop some incriminating photos of the husband so that I can court the owner-chef Hanna, marry her, and keep all her food to myself. As that would be a terrible thing to do and that I don't think I'm really spouse material and that I have no game whatsoever, instead I will eat here whenever I think I deserve an amazing meal and spread the word on how awesome Beaver Choice is!
On to my actual experience, I start with a phone call asking general questions about their restaurant, and engage in a nearly 8 minute dialogue analyzing what I like and ordering based upon their recommendation. This also creates a 10% discount by ordering over the phone for pick up off their bistro menu, which is nice for my lunch hour. I wound up picking the Chicken with Cardamom
sauce, perfectly seared slices of chicken then simmered
in cardamom accented, heavy creme sauce. The chicken was perfectly cooked, with the seared outside giving a pleasant mouthfeel, yielding to the moist and tender inner portion, all swimming in that wonderful sauce. You can choose a side dish and 3 portions of salad to go with your entree. Couscous was heavenly, absorbing all the juices of the chicken and mopping up the sauce in its fluffy goodness. Tomato-basil salad was fine, but too peppery. The spinach salad was straightforward and competent, and home-made coleslaw was tastier than most I've had. Very filling and extremely satisfying, I would bathe in that cardamom sauce if I could.
One note I need to make, a previous review had slammed Hanna for tasting something she was making, and using the same spoon for tasting something else. When I arrived I mentioned I heard about them on Yelp and mentioned this review, which prompted resulted in me being ushered into her kitchen to proudly display a set of about a dozen spoons at the ready for tasting. Also of note there are no microwaves! The pride in their food is entirely justified, yelpers. The only thing to be aware of is the time involved to prepare your food, but ordering in will alleviate that, or simply set aside plenty of time.
Choose Beaver Choice. You won't regret it.
