Hmm, I wasn’t really impressed by this. I mean it was good, but you would think it was amazing from the menu title. It was basic, and everything in it was cut really small so it didn’t feel substantial for a chowder. Not my favorite.

OMG, this was probably the best lamb I’ve ever tasted – no joke!! It was so tender and full of flavor, and it just melted in your mouth. I looked on their website recently and they no longer have the lamb on their menu which is a damn shame because this was the best thing ever! I’m just glad I had the chance to try it before they moved on. Lordy, I can almost taste it in my mouth if I think hard enough – it was that good!!! I took the leftovers home, and I swear it tasted just as good the next day. 🙂
