With all the hoo-haw, you would think that each of the participating restaurants would have a link on the front page of their web site, telling you what the Restaurant week menu was and inviting you to come on down. The vast majority of them did not; how is that for lack of promotion? If you showed up at Zest, there was no mention of a special restaurant week menu---YOU HAD TO ASK FOR IT! Some restaurant folks just don't get it.winedinernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6011144619028385410.post-63165167103379866612010-02-01T13:53:02.050-06:002010-02-01T13:53:02.050-06:00Preach it.

What I thought to be a promising salad, arrived to our table tasting like wet romaine lettuce. There's nothing more disappointing than a weak salad. McDonald's can dress a salad w/ cheese and fruit, you can too! Adding insult to injury, the entree course wasn't even the regular sized entree from the menu. There were 2 shrimp, a couple pieces of mahi, and a scallop on a 1/2 cup of rice w/ a piece of asparagus. Dessert was great and was actually the regular size I believe. The entree was excellent too, just skimpy. We dropped $125 w/ tip and a shared bottle of wine that was 1/2 price. Hit Westside Local on Saturday and felt like we got our money's worth. The 3 localities choice on the Prix Fixe was a deal, as were the mussels and the quinoux entrees. Both were delicious and the bread pudding to finish was carbohydrate nirvana. Go there.XXXhttp://hobohiker.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6011144619028385410.post-83000450696043241052010-02-01T12:12:25.509-06:002010-02-01T12:12:25.509-06:00Danny: I will definitely plan on hitting the Here...Danny: I will definitely plan on hitting the Hereford House next year as well. As I mentioned about half of the places do it right. The other half just need a little push in the right direction.<br /><br />Glad you had a great experience like I did with Harrys.Midtown Food Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02096348296315850650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6011144619028385410.post-23712023057683143552010-02-01T11:20:35.563-06:002010-02-01T11:20:35.563-06:00I went to Hereford House and paid $15 for lunch. ...I went to Hereford House and paid $15 for lunch.
