OMG!
just came back from Joe Fortes, oh man, it was like 9.5/10
i didn't expect much from the beginning because i didn't want to get dissapointed and say "Keg was better"
after tonight, i can proudly scream "Keg is not the best (to me)"
went with my gf, reservation was for 830, got seated by 9
it was hell busy tho.
appy: oysters (nothing special)
entree: steak and prawns, steak was AWEEEEEESOME like AWEEEESOME, i would go back for it. Prawns lived up to its word.. white places call their "tiger prawns, or sea blah blah blah prawns" it always turn out that it's some safeway small shrimp. but man, Fortes used BIG prawns that you find @ asian places, not the biggest i have eaten, but pretty big. like the length of an iphone big, and 2 fingers thick. the mash potatoes were weak tho, but i was there for the steak.
dessert: meh, i don't like any kind of dessert, except icecream, so i don't have an opinion.. but i did eat half just because its $38
overall, the service was pretty good.. all the staff dressed like lab researchers tho.. with their white lab coat LOL
and it was pretty disgusting seeing the glass washing machine... they just put the used glass into the machine, and the other side comes the "cleaned" ones and they would just use them. its NEVER been rubbed, its just a conveyor belt, like those touchless carwash!!! =S
anyways, it was worth $38 and the best experience i have had in terms of "high end" restuarants. all the other experience i had with high end restaurants has been garbage, this was AWESOME!
btw, they have that steak menu for $28 starting feb3.. 3 course menu too!
