Sampler plate – Big John’s Texas Barbeque

Sampler plate - Big John's Texas Barbeque
Beef brisket, pulled pork, spicy hot link sausage, and 2 pork baby back ribs served with cowboy beans and potato salad, cornbread muffin and white bread. $16
Big John’s Texas Barbecue, Page AZ

This was a good plate of bbq at a great price. The pork ribs and beef brisket were the better meats, but the link and pulled pork were a bit dry. I did like the beans and potato salad, and our server was really friendly and sweet!

Lobster salad – Rene at Tlaquepaque

Lobster salad - Rene at Tlaquepaque
Succulent chopped Maine lobster tossed with aioli, tarragon and a hint of lime, served in Belgian endive leaves. $14
Rene at Tlaquepaque, Sedona AZ

This tasted good, but I wish that there was more lobster. It tasted more like filler and the lobster was chopped so finely. I wish it was kept chunkier so I could tell it was actually lobster.

Huevos rancheros – The Grille at Shadowrock

Huevos rancheros - The Grille at Shadowrock
Two over easy eggs, cheddar cheese, crisp corn tortillas, black beans, tomatillo salsa. $12
The Grille at Shadowrock, Sedona AZ

 

I really liked this breakfast item! It was presented a little bit differently as a stacked dish. It was fun to eat and the tomatillo salsa tasted great with the black beans and crispy tortillas. The eggs were also cooked nicely, still runny and perfect.
