Sushi go round

 Although the concept wasn't need idea we wondered how the sushi on the conveyor belt stayed cold.

 The two selections we had off the conveyor belt were tasty which prompted us to order a full roll of the sushi love. The role itself was very large and require does to couldn't have to eat it with our fork.

The order of beef bulgogi was very good although the steamed vegetables on the side were somewhat disappointing.

Homemade Spring Rolls

 Why serve your guests frozen processed spring rolls?  Freshly prepared spring rolls offer your guests a tasty treat and allows you to be creative with the fillings.  

Serve them with hot out of the fryer with your favorite dipping sauces... or serve then plated (as seen here) cut on the bias and your guests will feel like they are in a fine dining restaurant. 

Poached Pears... Yum

Poached pears in Sweet Red Wine - then topped with fresh Gorgonzola Cheese, Candied Spicy Pecans and drizzled with Balsamic Glace...

A New Twist on a Ol' Favorite

Rather than just baking your cake... cut it out with cookie cutters and layer it in mini dessert or even cocktail glasses.  Layer it with your favorite fillings and garnish it with fresh fruit, cut in half and lightly coated with sugar.

Your guests will lick it clean - guaranteed!!!

Fresh Bruschetta

Fresh Tomatoes, Basil and an incredible vinaigrette is all it takes to make a party classic.  Served with freshly baked, thinly sliced baguette and your guests can't get enough!!

By piling the Bruschetta on a flat plate allows your guests to choose whether they want a lot of vinaigrette or just a little.

 

Rutsy's Downtown Grill & Bar

Enjoyed a great dinner there with friends.  Some of the items on the menu are a little higher priced but there are also some reasonable selections.

Our side salads had a great dressing and had a variety of toppings, not just your standard slice of cucumber and wedge of tomato!  The dressing was flavorful as well.

Can't say enough about the complementary garlic knots... you can almost drink the garlic butter with your spoon!!

The Eggplant Parm - served over spaghetti - was very tasty, eggplant cooked perfectly - breaded and fried golden brown and then baked without becoming soggy!  The dollop of ricotta cheese on top did little to add to the dish, but once sprinkled with parm and a dash of salt & pepper it was pleasant.

The Rasta Pasta sounds better on the menu.  The pesto was pure basil and olive oil, and was impossible to eat.   The server was gracious when informed about the overwhelming pesto and offered to cook something different.  So Lasagna was chosen.  It came to the table bubbling hot and full of delicious meats and cheeses.

The children's menu was a little lacking - the kids fried shrimp basket was nothing but fries and 4 little shrimp... thank goodness our dinner salads were large enough to share and the bread was plentiful or our child would have been hungry.

Allens Stone-Baked Pizzeria,

Although many claim to have NY style pizza... Allen's claim is correct!!  The pizza was DELICIOUS.
The pizza had the right ratio of sauce, cheese and toppings.  There was just a hint of crunch to the dough yet it still was soft and chewy. The toppings were fresh and flavorful.
The employees were friendly & service was beyond reproach. The atmosphere was comfortable and clean.
Their Family Meal deal $19.99 for one large 14" specialty pizza and one large 14" two topping pizza can't be beat.
