. "The Curse of Chain Restaurants ...it's cooking by the numbers, can't escape it. Cooks following mandated recipes instead of chefs offering their own version, showing with pride what they can do. \n\nA house salad on the side: good deal, good size, great ingredients but the dressing falls completely flat. \n\nGrilled scallops and shrimp - what was it, only 4 of each?- plump meat, nice and firm not overcooked by much but way too charred. I like charcoal but here it overpowered the seafood. A pity really. The mango sauce, what can I say I don't know what they were going for and I suspect neither did the cook. Don't remember the side veggies. Meh, definitely meh. Plus the place was hectic so I chose to smile and say nothing. Not bad, not great, not cheap."^^ . "0"^^ . . "0"^^ . . "2012-04-16T00:00:00"^^ .
