2/6/2015 Guernseys, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Well today we just HAD to go do some uppity "fine dining". We found out two things: First, the term "fine dining" can be interchanged freely with "you're not going to get enough to eat, and you're going to spend more money than you think". Luckily, only the first part of that applied here.
Crab Dip


Danny had: scallops, nem noung, ginger chicken
Alex had: crab dip, seafood combination
I had: oxtail ravioli, seafood combination

I know a lot of people that are put off with food that comes from the tail area, including oxtail, rocky mountain oysters, lamb fries, and straight up chicken fried bull foreskin. These same people will tell you how disgusting these things are while chowing down a quarter pound Wal Mart hot dog from China. HOT DOGS ARE LIPS AND ASSHOLES, PEOPLE!

Hypocrites.
Alex

Anyway, everything we had was absolutely fantastic. Wait, I take that back. This place had the flattest diet Coke ever. I was like drinking diet coke that had been left out for 5 days under a grease trap, then chilled and served. Apparently the "Carlo Rossi Treatment" doesn't work on diet coke. If you know what that is, then you know what I'm talking about. If you look at the Seafood Combo below, you will see a couple huge shrimp, some sashimi (tuna and yellowfin), and that huge mushroom looking thing is a giant scallop. The rest is arugula and wild rice.

Danny (who is Vietnamese), declared the Nem Nuong (a Vietnamese dish) "very good". His comment about the Ginger Chicken? "I think they forgot the ginger". Whoops...gig. And before the three of you point out that Alex and I ordered the same thing, I would point out that I got the "carb free" version of the plate. So there.

Speaking of Danny, we also found out that Danny is our "High Maintenance" diner, asking for lemonade, which wasn't on the menu. Our server offered to have the bartender make him some, and he got his lemonade. One can only wonder if he also received extra spit in that, or just the normal amount of spit expected at uppity fine dining spots.

Food: 4.5 out of 5
Service: 4 out of 5
