What I Ordered:
Chalk Farm Smoked Salmon
The dish arrived at my table as a visual delight, with delicate folds of smoked salmon elegantly draped over a fluffy mound of creamy scrambled eggs. The colors were vivid, and the arrangement was a testament to thoughtful plating.
What truly sets this dish apart was the commitment to quality ingredients. The Chalk Farm smoked salmon was both rich and subtly smoky. The eggs clearly were of high quality, a testament to the chef’s expertise in achieving that perfect creamy consistency. The sourdough was expertly toasted, providing a delightful crunch that contrasted beautifully with the creaminess of the eggs and the melt-in-your-mouth salmon.
*Chucs Chopped Cobb Salad
This Cobb Salad was on another level. Look at this picturesque display of vibrant colors; the ingredients are neatly arranged like an art.
The crunchiness from the bacon and the tenderness of the chicken were amazing, but what particularly stood out to me was the delicious taste of cheddar cheese. The dressing tied everything together with a tangy and slightly sweet touch.
