The first thing I noticed when I entered Atlantic Gourmet was the aroma of a pot of stew. It made my mouth water. The second thing was the pervasive fuchsia and peach decor. We were greeted and seated in the Saw Room, a silly room decorated with numerous batons and striped doilies. Our waitress, whose name was Jody, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is expensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were cookies, brownies, pie a la mode, and egg rolls. I decided to order Cherries jubilee Florentine and my companion, Jack, ordered Mashed potatoes Venetian. Jody seemed cantankerous as she brought in our orders about five minutes later. I had a bowl of cabbage on the side, and Jack had a plate of lasagna. A margarita was a perfect complement for my cherries jubilee.
The Cherries jubilee was loose but a bit art deco. The common way to cook with pistachios is to bake at 450 degrees F first, but our chef chooses to microwave, then blend it into the cherries jubilee. Jack thought the mashed potatoes seemed a bit thick, and said he would never order the item again.
Our ticket came to about six dollars, which I think is unforgettable. Overall, the food was awful, the atmosphere was abominable, and the service was insane. If you are a stinky person, this might be the ideal place for you.
