Scrumpteous Repast
Thursday, March 19, 2009
What a wonderful repast at Aqua Blue – we belatedly (due to my health challenges) celebrated our Anniversary there last evening, and couldn’t have been more pleased with the delicious food, and the terrific service!
I chose the Calamari appetizer – superbly tender with sweet chili sauce = yum! For main dish, every bite of the Lobster Ravioli was a scrumptious experience…. real lobster chunks were cradled in delectable home made, melt in your mouth ravioli, swimming in a luscious cream sauce, which the fabulous chef was kind enough to modify to exclude ‘shrooms & fennel (dietary limitations) for me!
My finicky hubby raved about the shrimp spring rolls – I actually could see the shrimp bulging out from across the table! He also appreciated the trout, with both baked potato & fries. Even the bread selections were delectable – especially the focaccia & corn breads.
The service was exceptional – Meghan was a dear – they should ‘clone’ her - she produced a lovely surprise for our anniversary! Even tho I thought I’d explode if I took another bite (she graciously had previously boxed up half of both my appetizer & entre), I just had to sample the molten chocolate cake with touch of crème freche & strawberry, and my hubby appreciated the ice cream compliment. A fitting topping to our fantastic evening.
It certainly was worth every mile (we live up in the north GA Mountains), the three month wait to celebrate, and every penny! We can’t wait to come back for another go, and we discussed which sets of our guests we’ll want to treat to this marvelous feast soon!
Pros: Great Chef, Teriffic Service, Incredible Cuisine
Cons: a bit nosy on Thurs - singles night
