| - I made the mistake of coming here while it was Easter. Pretty easy when I brunch every week. The place was busy and they didn't have a huge selection of food, but the desserts... an entire room. And as it was busy, you know what happened. My glass was empty. For those that follow me, that's a huge pet peeve of mine. I'm fact, I asked a buser for a couple, waited 10-minutes, I flagged the server, and finally got one 5-minutes later. Fortunately, I was able to serve myself some of my friend's tea.
The salad bar had two salads to choose from, many cold cuts, cheeses and a handful of pantry sides. An omelet station.
The carving station was the failure. Lamb chop and sirloin roasted cooked to medium for serving. And only one. I asked the chef and he confirmed all beef roasts are cooked to medium. This resulted in the sirloin drawing moisture as you tried eating it. Any way, the line was huge, so I helped myself to the entree section. Only had potatoes, asparagus, braised short ribs (delicious) and salmon.
The setting was beautiful. One even has the option of singing al fresco. Overall it was a decent experience... until I saw what they charged. In comparison, Verandah does a far more superior job and has a much better value.
