My Most Disappointing Forking Meal I had In San Diego CA

These Tortellini look pretty nice! Don’t They?

But it seemed like someone just pulled them out of the forking refrigerator, dressed them up a little and threw them on a heated plate hoping we’d just forking eat them that way.

This is Forked Up!

It’s really very odd that someone did this…

We said something to our waiter and before we knew it the manager was over and apologized profusely. The manager took the tortellini off our check and asked us if we’d take a properly made plate of butternut squash tortellini.

A long time passes by and we are wondering what was happening. Eventually a plate of hot butternut squash tortellini’s have arrived. They are delicious but slightly spicy. They have a creamy butternut sauce that is cut with fresh crisp apples and some fried sage.

Soon our pink sea bream arrives.

The fish looks sort of nice with fresh herbs and a cooked lemon.

But it’s slightly overcooked and slightly dried out like it’s been sitting awhile. It’s sort of like fish off a buffet and not that moist perfect fish your hoping for from a fish house.

I said it was forking ok to the waiter because it was ok just not great.

OK so I was expecting an excellent fish dish since this is a fish place and was sort of disappointed and thought I needed dessert to cheer me up and forget about the disappointment.

We decided to share a Pear Tart Tatin.

The ice-cream was suppose to be caraway flavored but neither of us could taste caraway. Everything under the ice-cream just tasted burnt. I don’t really know if it was just a burnt sauce or a burnt cake and sauce. Neither of us could saw threw the cake with our forks because the tart tatin was hard like a rock. This dessert was awful and I told the waiter that it was hard to eat. He said well you can order something else next time.

I don’t know who they have working there in the kitchen? Was it these guys?

I note this may not be typical of this restaurant but if you happen to give them a try I’d recommend the raw shellfish.
