Hit and Miss Restaurants Part II

Below is my Hit and Miss opinions on restaurants or hotels I have been too in the last four months. These are opinions of Chef Christine and not statements.

Hit- Great Burgers at the Charlie Horse in West Bridgewater, MA. The Champion Burger was the best burger I have ever had. It was cooked they way I wanted it, Medium Rare and boy was it juicy. The fries were excellent too. I could tell that the fryer oil is cleaned daily.

Miss- Super Mondo Platter at Cantina #1 in the Mall of America; Bloomington,MN. It was the worst Mexican food I ever had. No flavor at all. The spinach dip was terrible until I added some salt and pepper with Tabasco sauce. My husband and I agreed that it might be a place to just drink and eat the chips and salsa. Also, you could tell from the Chips that the fryer oil was burnt. I did like the ambiance of the restaurant. The chairs will comfy.

Major Hit and a must eat at Place!
Olivadi- Central Street in Norwood
This restaurant has to have the best Italian food I have ever tasted. I had the Chicken Parmigiano. I was very surprised to find out it didn't come out of a box and then fried. My taste buds were truly tantalized by just the right amount of sauce and the crispy baked crust. Its a definite must place to eat.

Hit- Bon Fire in Savage, MN
Over the Holiday break, I spent it in cold Minnesota. My brother Nathan recommended Bon Fire to us as a great place to eat and he was right. Bon Fire is know for their Brick oven and rotisserie. Since it was lunch my husband and I order both the tomato- basil soup and White Bean Chili. I could tell the soups were made in house. On a side note, I don't understand why restuarants buy their soups, its easy to make your own and less expensive, plus customers can tell the difference. Anyway, we then ordered the Hictory Burger, which had BBQ sauce on it with a side of fries. The burger was tantalizing and the fries were crispy. My brother yelled at us because I guess you don't go there for a Burger, the Steaks are the top prize and so is the Beer Can chicken which we saw being cooked on the open flame.

Another Hit place to go is your Mom's house. Food is alway's delicious and always free. What a bargin place to eat on a tight budget? Also, she loves the company.

Thats all for Hit and Miss Restaurants Part II. Come back and see what Part III has to offer.
