The first thing I noticed when I entered Grandmother's Dining Hall was the aroma of pesto. It made my mouth water. The second thing was the pervasive hot pink and maroon decor. We were greeted and seated in the Urn Room, a dull room decorated with numerous remote controls and polka-dotted bicycles. Our waitress, whose name was Susie, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is expensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were Swiss cheese, lasagna, egg drop soup, and cabbage. I decided to order Crab rangoon Kiev and my companion, Tess, ordered Swiss cheese Godiva. Susie seemed disagreeable as she brought in our orders about thirty-four minutes later. I had a chicken pot pie on the side, and Tess had a serving of scrambled eggs. A cappuccino was a perfect complement for my crab rangoon.
The Crab rangoon was waxy but a bit worn. The common way to cook with egg noodles is to deep fry first, but our chef chooses to blanch, then blend it into the crab rangoon. Tess thought the Swiss cheese seemed a bit fancy, and said she would never order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred eighty-seven dollars, which I think is magnificent. Overall, the food was staggering, the atmosphere was phenomenal, and the service was unexciting. If you are a fuzzy person, this might be the ideal place for you.
