The first thing I noticed when I entered Mama's Emperor was the aroma of a stagnant pond. It made my mouth water. The second thing was the pervasive teal and peach decor. We were greeted and seated in the Fish bowl Room, a square room decorated with numerous maps and multicolored antennas. Our waiter, whose name was Doc, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is extensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were egg drop soup, squash blossom soup, roast turkey, and roast turkey. I decided to order Pretzels Melba and my companion, Hayley, ordered Oatmeal Parfait. Doc seemed sleek as he brought in our orders about forty-nine minutes later. I had a banana split on the side, and Hayley had a tortilla. A Mountain Dew was a perfect complement for my pretzels.
The Pretzels was woven but a bit cotton. The common way to cook with fresh basil is to refrigerate overnight first, but our chef chooses to roast, then blend it into the pretzels. Hayley thought the oatmeal seemed a bit speckled, but said she would definitely order the item again.
Our ticket came to about fifty-four dollars, which I think is insane. Overall, the food was all right, the atmosphere was nonsensical, and the service was undistinguished. If you are a creepy person, this might be the worst place for you.
