I
like
to
try
high
end
restaurants
when
traveling.
I
usually
stick
with
steaks,
but
thought
I’d
try
seafood
as
Halibut
is
in
season
and
should
be
“relatively”
local
and
fresh.
I
had
high
expectations….
Perhaps
that’s
where
I
failed.
I
should
know
better,
working
some
nice
restaurants
30
years
ago,
today,
too
many
places
try
too
hard,
and
forget
basic
things.
Flavor
should
come
first.
I
started
with
a
lobster
bisque.
Sadly,
this
was
the
strangest
lobster
bisque
I’ve
ever
had.
It
tasted
of
pure
chitin,
nothing
but
shell,
gritty
and
well..
disgusting.
It
looked
and
tasted
of
mud
with
texture
to
match.
Next
course
was
the
Halibut.
Pan
seared,
and
served
on
top
of
a
risotto
with
asparagus.
There
was
a
sauce
I
wont
attempt
to
describe,
it
looked
of
sea
foam.
Nothing
stood
out
about
the
sauce
I
could
pinpoint
any
central
flavor
or
seasoning…
just
bland.
The
risotto
tasted
as
it
should,
but
lacking
seasoning.
The
halibut
was
perhaps
a
little
overcooked,
but
fresh
and
properly
seasoned.
I’d
suggest
if
you
come
here,
try
the
steaks.
They
may
be
marvelous,
I
don’t
know.
Avoid
the
bisque
at
all
costs.
