On the occasion of my wife's 29th birthday (again, she's apparently ageless), she is providing the details of her recent B-day dinner with her girlfiends (since I wasn't invited thank you very much).
Brown's is popular for it's cheap drinks which they of course indulged in since it was a B-day dinner. Wife started with a cup of French Onion soup which was too much packed into a too small of a cup to even eat without all the broth and contents overflowing.
Wife ordered a blackened fish burger which she said was surprisingly bland for a blackened fillet....and a bit overdone and dry to boot. Fries and coleslaw, hot and fresh and tangy respectively. Two of her friends ordered steak sandwiches, one medium rare and one well done (OMG, why even order a steak) which of course got switched when they came to the table probably because they were chattering too much and not paying attention to the waitress. Of course the two girls didn't noticed until they had already dug into their plates. But otherwise they were well received. The last of the quartet order a blackened chicken rice bowl which seemed to satisfy her. For dessert the four of them shared a slice of chocolate cake with a tangy raspberry layer.
Service was fine and despite a few glitches they enjoyed their dinner (cheap drinks help) and want to go back try Browns for breakfast next. I'm still not invited.....
