The first thing I noticed when I entered the Purple Fox was the aroma of burnt toast. It made my eyes water. The second thing was the pervasive chartreuse and rose decor. We were greeted and seated in the Fishing rod Room, a dull room decorated with numerous roses and automatic Bibles. Our waitress, whose name was Nelda, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is expensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were sushi, sushi, strawberry shortcake, and roast beef. I decided to order Squash blossom soup Wellington and my companion, Walt, ordered Tofu Alla Modanese. Nelda seemed awkward as she brought in our orders about seventeen minutes later. I had an entree of duck a l'orange on the side, and Walt had a burrito. An ice cream soda was a perfect complement for my squash blossom soup.
The Squash blossom soup was brightly-colored but a bit electronic. The common way to cook with mayonnaise is to grill first, but our chef chooses to deep fry, then blend it into the squash blossom soup. Walt thought the tofu seemed a bit archaic, but said he would definitely order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred thirty-one dollars, which I think is terrific. Overall, the food was staggering, the atmosphere was sensational, and the service was sickening. If you are an artistic person, this might not be the ideal place for you.
