Not sure where to go this year.
Sad/interesting to see 2008 Best Bite Award Winner Savoury Coast is now closed.
I guess they did their best to try to survive.

don't have too high expectations

作者: raima 時間: 2009-1-2 13:44

rates will be $18 $28 $38. used to be $15 $25 $35

作者: daimo 時間: 2009-1-2 13:52

the rate isn't the concern. The concern is that the restaurants specially create a menu for dine-out. a lot of them are not as good as the regular menu.

You mean the taste/quality is not as good or the selection is more limited?

I agree, they choose the "regular" stuff for dine out rather than their specialty

any suggestions?

作者: raima 時間: 2009-1-7 14:49

i personally don't choose the $38 menus (used to be $35) because i'd rather order one entree from the regular menu during regular times to really try their food.

i usually choose the $28 (used to be $25) ones and some of them i've been to in previous years were good.

this year i'm going to try Westward Ho! Public House & Grill Room (University Golf Club)
