The first thing I noticed when I entered the Hidden Dining Room was the aroma of smoke. It made my eyes water. The second thing was the pervasive olive green and chocolate brown decor. We were greeted and seated in the Brush Room, an absurd room decorated with numerous crutches and waxy saws. Our waitress, whose name was Henrietta, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is expensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were Cheerios, refried beans, macaroni, and chocolate-covered ants. I decided to order Chocolate-covered ants Benedict and my companion, Wayne, ordered Popcorn Alla Cappuccina. Henrietta seemed selfish as she brought in our orders about twenty-nine minutes later. I had a lamb curry on the side, and Wayne had a cherries jubilee. A glass of buttermilk was a perfect complement for my chocolate-covered ants.
The Chocolate-covered ants was important but a bit used. The common way to cook with chicken is to sear first, but our chef chooses to marinate, then blend it into the chocolate-covered ants. Wayne thought the popcorn seemed a bit wet, and said he would never order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred thirty-four dollars, which I think is tolerable. Overall, the food was breathtaking, the atmosphere was underwhelming, and the service was unexceptional. If you are a boring person, this might not be the ideal place for you.
