| - Well, I will start this review by saying that I have yet to eat at Cowfish, but it serves me right for thinking that the wait would not be 2 hours on a Saturday night. Anyway, it was all good, because we were able to get a quicker seat at Zink. I am not sure what happened to M5, which was in this location before, but I can say that I have not had a bad meal at either of those 2 restaurants. Needless to say, that streak is still alive.
Double date night with the wife and 2 other friends was the plan and we had a great meal. As soon as I looked at the menu, the "Nacho" brisket burger was calling my name. The burger is a mixture of their standard ground beef along with brisket, topped with avocado, habanero jack, tobacco onions, chipotle aioli and black bean corn salsa. It also came with a side a fries, which were just ok. The burger, on the other hand, was the best that I have had in a while. It had some nice spice to it and all the toppings went well together. It was a little messy to eat, but our server was good enough to get me a second napkin, which came in handy towards the end.
The wife had their red snapper fish special for the night, and it came with spicy "angry corn" and sliced, broiled heirloom tomato with creamy, melted goat cheese on top. Once again, we had another very pleased diner.
One last thing that I like about Zink is their beer selection. They only have a few draft options, which are usually local NC brews, but their bottled choices are excellent.
