Lunch with Nik and Nate
My daughter and I used to have dinner together once a month or so at Bacchus on Wednesday nights. We always had a perfect meal and a wonderful time. We haven’t done that in a number of years, so I’d like to start another tradition and go to lunch with her once a month or so. (Whadda ya think, Pook?) It’ll be challenging when season is in full swing, but I think we’ll be up to the task. And it’ll be different to review lunch places for the blog. And we’ll get to go to Cafe Christine this season!
Nikki wanted to go to Christine’s this week, but when I called, Christine said they wouldn’t be opening until next Wednesday. Okay, so I mentioned that “Angry Nate’s” had opened and it might be a cool place to try. She agreed and we had lunch there on Wednesday, the day after I had dinner there with Michael and Goliath.
Tammy was the waitress and she was the only one. Steve, the manager was there again, helping out, I guess, and he came over to make sure everything was alright at our table. Nikki was really hungry, so we decided to share a caesar salad with shrimp as a starter. Tammy came back after we placed the order, to say that they were out of shrimp, so we had a caesar with croutons and grated parmesan cheese ;). It was good, but I have not found a better caesar than Diane’s at the South Shore Cafe (although I haven’t had it in years). She uses really good parm and doesn’t grate it into a powder like most places.
For her lunch “entree” , Nikki had spicy tuna bites, which were breaded and fried with a creamy dipping sauce. I had the veggie spring rolls. Both choices were yummy. As Nikki said in a comment on my last post, the service was lousy, but we’re thinking it was the kitchen that had difficulty with the lunch-hour pace, since Tammy’s a very good server.

Yeah! Thanks again for lunch, ma! I really liked the place, despite the poor service. Those tuna bites were awesome!
We can make it a monthly thing, no problem.
