| - While waiting for our flight, we decided to have lunch at Houston's, an American restaurant known for its burgers.
The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu.
For lunch, I ordered a French Onion Soup, which consisted of beef broth with caramelized onions, croutons, and gruyere au gratin. It was flavorful and I liked how it had a nice balance of sweet and salty. It was served with mini ham and cheese sandwich. I was surprised that the buns were buttered or toasted, how tiny the slice of ham and cheese were, and the cheese wasn't melted. It would have tasted better with a mini Croquet Monsieur / Madame sandwich.
My mom ordered the Caesar Salad, which consisted of decently fresh chopped romaine hearts, bacon, parmesan, and croutons tossed in a roasted garlic vinaigrette. I'm sure some people wouldn't mind that salad dressing. However, I felt that it was too garlicky.
My dad ordered the Prime Rib Sandwich, which consisted of thin sliced low grade quantity prime rib, caramelized onions, and slice of white cheddar. It was served with au jus, horseradish, and soggy french fries.
Next time, I'll probably try a burger!
