| - Queens Feast Extravaganza!
Whiskey or beer, whiskey or beer. What a dilemma. I finally settled on a "Kentucky Mule", which was prepared perfectly. I had planned to get a beer after, but it was so good I had another mule instead. Served in the appropriate copper mug, which makes it all the better. (Side note: One time in Charleston the restaurant I was at tried to upcharge for the mug. It seemed silly and I didn't do it, so I got to drink a Mule out of a regular glass. It was still OK, but since the mug makes it that much more special, I was a little frustrated by the experience). Pleasantly and more appropriately, there was no mention of that kind of nonsense here. Kudos for not being ridiculous like that.
This Queens Feast week deal was hard to pass up, they made practically their entire menu available. It was very difficult to choose, but since the opportunity seems to come along less and less, I went for Chef Adam's Rotisserie Feature (Prime Rib). It was everything I hoped it could be, and done just right. I opted for the "pee wee" potatoes as well, although they did offer any side from the menu, not just this suggested pairing. I went for dry rubbed chicken wings for a starter, and with five at our table everyone else got something different, so we tried most of the the starters available. We all agreed the wings were the clear winner (although it was all delicious).
We all picked the Deep Dish Bourbon Pecan Pie for dessert. It was large enough and sweet enough I brought half home for later!
Service was extremely attentive, we will definitely be going back here again soon.
