Well it’s date night and our original plan was to go for sushi. But I want something where I’m not going to be hungry an hour I have finished my meal. It’s been a minute since we have tried the Boathouse so we decided to head on over.
Merilynn is kicking off the weekend with a Spicy Margherita.
I’m honestly a little surprised she picked this. I’ve had them and they’re not my favorite but she said it grew on her. I still have to work tomorrow so I just stuck with a cranberry and soda.
This month they have a special dish and apparently it’s very popular.
Lobster Francese
A parmesan crusted lobster tail in a lobster cream sauce with asparagus and tomatoes.
I really enjoyed the lobster tail, nicely cooked with lots of flavour from the parm. The pasta was al dente and the tomatoes and asparagus added a nice touch. The sauce had just a little bit of a kick to give it some intensity. A solid pasta dish.
Merilynn jumped all over the Shrimp and Brie dip, like I figured she would.
This was really delicious. I mean damn good. Only one problem. It’s rich. Too rich. I mean it’s hard to eat more than three bites rich. Tender, succulent shrimp in creamy, melted brie.with bacon and artichokes. Great combo.
We both scored this a 10 initially, but dropped it to an 8 as it’s honestly too hard to eat much of it.
My last visit here was a bit of a disappointment. Tonight’s visit was much, much better.
