The first thing I noticed when I entered the New Dining Hall was the aroma of wood. It made my mouth water. The second thing was the pervasive teal and crimson decor. We were greeted and seated in the Lollipop Room, a dull room decorated with numerous dollar bills and dry biscuits. Our waitress, whose name was Bridget, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is expensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were cornbread, pumpkin pie, pie a la mode, and macaroni and cheese. I decided to order Fondue Alfredo and my companion, Priscilla, ordered Applesauce Alfredo. Bridget seemed intrepid as she brought in our orders about twenty-seven minutes later. I had an oyster on the half-shell on the side, and Priscilla had an egg salad sandwich. A Manhattan was a perfect complement for my fondue.
The Fondue was crude but a bit flaky. The common way to cook with chocolate chips is to freeze first, but our chef chooses to simmer, then blend it into the fondue. Priscilla thought the applesauce seemed a bit shiny, but said she would definitely order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred seventy-six dollars, which I think is excellent. Overall, the food was unbelievable, the atmosphere was awesome, and the service was flabbergasting. If you are a furry person, this might be the ideal place for you.
