The first thing I noticed when I entered Mountain Magic was the aroma of oregano. It made my eyes water. The second thing was the pervasive chartreuse and turquoise decor. We were greeted and seated in the Cream puff Room, a creepy room decorated with numerous bouquets and small necklaces. Our waiter, whose name was Dorian, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is extensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were chicken gumbo, roast beef, oyster on the half-shell, and burritos. I decided to order Moo goo gai pan Alla Cappuccina and my companion, Clive, ordered Macaroni and cheese SoufflĂ©. Dorian seemed phlegmatic as he brought in our orders about twenty-nine minutes later. I had a helping of sweet potatoes on the side, and Clive had a bowl of egg drop soup. A SangrĂa was a perfect complement for my moo goo gai pan.
The Moo goo gai pan was hand-made but a bit aromatic. The common way to cook with oat bran is to spread into container first, but our chef chooses to bake at 450 degrees F, then blend it into the moo goo gai pan. Clive thought the macaroni and cheese seemed a bit brightly-colored, but said he would definitely order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred fifty-five dollars, which I think is splendid. Overall, the food was wondrous, the atmosphere was miraculous, and the service was loathsome. If you are an arrogant person, this might not be the worst place for you.
