Dinner at Blu Hwy
8:20pm
Sat down in a lovely atmosphere about 20 minutes ago. Still haven’t received beverages, but everywhere is low on staffing so it’s understandable. Will update!
Update: 8:52pm
Enjoying a lovely glass of Bergamote 2018 Rosé at a fair price.
Appetizers arrived like a rogue wave, not that my party minds that! The chicken drumsticks were fried to perfection. Moist. The chile corn chowder was terrific.
The barbecued octopus with chickpeas was a fun way to eat seafood and of course we finished our appetizer buffet with the shrimp cocktail.
Also, I tend to judge the quality of a restaurant by its house salad, and the house salad here is at least a 7 out of 10.
The rosé is working with it all.
Looking forward to the crispy rainbow trout with pork belly.
Update: 11:07pm
Combining rainbow trout and pork belly with jicama is fucking next level. Mario jumping up, hitting a brick and getting a coin type stuff. I'm not going to lay here and act like the worlds biggest food expert but wow was I impressed. And with a drizzle of molasses(?) based sauce acting almost as a BBQ dressing the plate, coitus is performed by a pig, trout, and as always, jicama.
Peace and Love,
BBQ Jack
