Told the wait staff that the quoted 'One pound of Prince Edward Island mussels' was about a half pound shy. They said the told the cook/ chef....okay and what did he have to say?
The Frites were good fries... 'Served with a"Chef sauce", a combination of half Dark Capital BBQ sauce and half mayonnaise'....a squirt of BBQ sauce in a plastic cup with some mayo, not even mixed.
Average quantity is 20-25 mussels per lb
there were 11 on our plate-
the MENU stated we were getting 1 LB PEI Mussels...
We missed a half lb somewhere.
