The first thing I noticed when I entered Hillside Fox was the aroma of liver and onions. It made my eyes water. The second thing was the pervasive brown and carrot-orange decor. We were greeted and seated in the Pair of binoculars Room, an odd room decorated with numerous apples and chic cotton balls. Our waiter, whose name was Garrick, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is expensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were hors d'oeuvre, apple pie, spaghetti, and moo goo gai pan. I decided to order Cheerios Almondine and my companion, Alton, ordered Potatoes and gravy Napoleon. Garrick seemed dark as he brought in our orders about thirty-nine minutes later. I had a doughnut on the side, and Alton had a piece of Swiss cheese. A Mountain Dew was a perfect complement for my Cheerios.
The Cheerios was grubby but a bit dry. The common way to cook with bamboo shoots is to microwave first, but our chef chooses to whirl, then blend it into the Cheerios. Alton thought the potatoes and gravy seemed a bit slimy, but said he would definitely order the item again.
Our ticket came to about forty-eight dollars, which I think is ordinary. Overall, the food was acceptable, the atmosphere was swell, and the service was unforgettable. If you are a contented person, this might not be the ideal place for you.
