The first thing I noticed when I entered the Beautiful Spoon was the aroma of Yves Saint Laurent. It made my mouth water. The second thing was the pervasive pink and silver decor. We were greeted and seated in the Clothespin Room, a sad room decorated with numerous fishing rods and soft flyswatters. Our waiter, whose name was Klaus, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is expensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were Hamburger Helper, candy, strawberry shortcake, and egg rolls. I decided to order Popcorn Française and my companion, Kyle, ordered Scrambled eggs Alla Lombarda. Klaus seemed bouncy as he brought in our orders about five minutes later. I had a plate of spaghetti on the side, and Kyle had a helping of pot roast. A whiskey sour was a perfect complement for my popcorn.
The Popcorn was flexible but a bit coarse. The common way to cook with carrots is to poach lightly first, but our chef chooses to heat, then blend it into the popcorn. Kyle thought the scrambled eggs seemed a bit polished, and said he would never order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred sixty-eight dollars, which I think is wonderful. Overall, the food was satisfying, the atmosphere was bearable, and the service was staggering. If you are a haggard person, this might be the worst place for you.
