Friday night we went out with Carrie's sister Lisa and her husband James for dinner, and decided to try the Ringside Fish house in the Fox Tower. Dinner was great, and Glen, our waiter was phenomenal. From drink recommendations to great menu explanations it was a great night. The truffle frites and kalamari were great starters, and the lobster mashed potatoes were a decadent treat that should be added to any dinner order. We will definitely be back to sample even more of the menu. Here are pictures and a break down of each element of my meal:
Crab frites:
Amazing! Super crisp fried potatoes topped with Truffle Hollandaise and large lumps of crab. Not to be missed.
Kalamari:
Done unlike any you've tried before. Done Vietnamese street style with chiles and quick-pickled veggies. Not breaded or fried like you might expect when you see it on the menu. You have totry this if you get a chance.
Fennel and corn chowder:
Amazing richness hits you immediately, but combines with the sharp bacon and fennel to make an amazing soup.
Surf & Turf w/ crab mac & cheese and lobster mashed potatoes:
Steak medallions served with jumbo prawns. Perfectly cooked steak. Lobster mashed potatoes were amazingly rich. Prawns were lightly seasoned and a perfect light foil to the rich steak and mashed potatoes.
