Chicken tikka masala – Bombay Indian Restaurant

Chicken tikka masala - Bombay Indian Restaurant
Barbecued chicken cooked with a unique blend of spices, with tomatoes and onions in a creamy sauce. $11.95
Bombay Indian Restaurant, San Francisco CA

I guess I’ve never really had a bad chicken tikka masala although I’ve had some that were on the verge of being too tomato-y. Bombay’s version was pretty tasty and had plenty of the delicious sauce. I just wish they would throw in a few more chicken pieces.

Mmm, I love artichokes! This dish was very tasty and the bacon herbed bread crumbs were fabulous. It took a while to eat through all the leaves, but we enjoyed savoring each one!

Sage fried chicken and waffles - Hash House A Go Go
Mmm, this was much tastier and more manageable than the fried chicken benedict! The chicken was still a little greasy, but the waffles with bacon cooked into them were delicious. I just drenched everything in maple syrup and went for it, lol! I could have done without the useless pile of fried leeks on top though.

Ugh, this was the weakest and smallest nine dollar margarita I have EVER had! The sad part is that I really didn’t expect anything better. What a waste!

Lamb seekh kabob – Bombay Indian Restaurant

Lamb seekh kabob - Bombay Indian Restaurant
Barbecued fresh ground lamb with herbs and spices, onions. $13.95
Bombay Indian Restaurant, San Francisco CA

Meh, I really wasn’t expecting small rabbit pellets when I ordered this. The flavors were good, but unfortunately the ground lamb was super dry and there were more onions than anything else.

Andy’s sage fried chicken benedict – Hash House A Go Go

Andy's sage fried chicken benedict - Hash House A Go Go
With fresh spinach, hardwood smoked bacon, market tomato, griddled mozzarella, chipotle cream and scrambled eggs served on a fresh split biscuit with griddled mashed potatoes. $15.95
Hash House A Go Go, Las Vegas NV

OMG, this fried chicken benedict was digustingly awe-inspiring, lol! We came to Hash House A Go Go to try this monstrousity because someone in our group had seen it on Man Vs. Food where Adam Richman ate the entire thing (ew!). Thank god I wasn’t the one who ordered it, but I did help eat it (hehe!).

The chipotle cream was a little on the bland side which is probably a good thing because you’d probably get sick from eating it all especially if it was spicy. The biscuits were dense and seemed underdone, and the mashed potatoes were also under-seasoned. The fried chicken tasted good but they were greasy. I guess what I’m saying was that this dish wasn’t very good, but it was worth the opportunity to see it in person and to give it a go. And really, it was only sixteen bucks! 🙂

Waimea chicken wings - Margaritaville
Covered with a sweet Thai chili sauce, served with celery sticks and bleu cheese dressing. $11.99
Margaritaville, Las Vegas NV

Meh, these fried chicken wings were passable. They were really small and slightly dry. I did like the Thai chili sauce even though it probably came out of a bottle…
