Hoa's & Duy's Birhtday @ Forbes Mill Steakhouse-  5-30-09

Forbes Mill printed out a special menu to welcome the birthday boys: Hoa and Andrew(Duy).

Hoa and Duy came in the restaurant after us because they were parking the car... We all saw how special the menu was and thought Hoa and Duy will be a bit surprise to see it.  As they were opening the menu, both of them did not see the big caption "happy birthday..." on the menu, we had to point it out in order for them to see it.  We are getting old and it is somewhat difficult to read in a dim lit room! a

 

For appetizers we ordered a few Forbes Mill platter with jumbo prawns, Crab cakes, and seared Furitake Ahi tuna.  The appetizers was actually pretty good and we all enjoy it.

 

I had the onion soup for starter but it was just okay.  Onion soup needs to be served piping hot out of the oven. Mine for just luke warm..

This is the special on the menu.  I like it because we had a taste of the filet Mignon, Halibut and the lamb chop.  

Every thing taste really good but I could not finish the whole plate, there is just too much food. 

 

Hoa had the Surf and Turf.  The lobster was very good!   pretty big portion too.

 

 

Tuan does not eat meat so he ordered the Crab crusted Halibut with orange whole grain, zucchini pomodoro, and yukon wedge.

Phuc brought more than a few bottles of wine but this is the only 2 pictures we had. 

 

This dessert came with our course meal.. 

 

Happy birthday platter for Hoa...

 

Happy birthday platter for Duy!

This is pretty original!   They took a huge platter and wrote happy birthday and drew a few candles and decorative motives with melted chocolate.
