DISAPPOINTMENT ON BIRTHDAY

 

For my husband's birthday last month we wanted to go all out and experience a touch of New Orleans, close to home. We heard of a place in Royal Oaks, Michigan called Tom's Oyster Bar that made an awesome Po' Boy Sandwich. So we decided to go and try it out.  The place was packed, when we arrived and we thought that was a good sign. Entrees here were in the $25-$30 range. A little rich for us. Their sandwiches were more in keeping with our budget. So we ordered a couple Oyster Po' Boys. Waiting for them... we entertained ourselves with people watching... while we nursed a couple autumn lagers. We do not normally drink when we go out... but this was a special occasion, so we made an exception. It seemed to take forever for the sandwiches to arrive. And when they did, I must say we were sadly disappointed. Our evening ruined. There was very little meat to the oysters. And what we got a mouthful of instead, was all breading. OVERPRICED, for sure. Hardly the New Orleans dinner experience we were expecting. And definitely not awesome as promised. So I guess it was live and learn. Have you ever gotten a bad meal????
