On-going review of the Shed.

Picking up where I left off.  Last week we went to The Shed for their $3 slider night, and it was so fantastic we vowed to go again this week.  So last night we went along with the Canadians and M&K, and had a very pleasant dinner.  Last week I had the pork schnitzel slider, the chicken salad slider and the pork belly BLT slider.  Of that lot, the schnitzel was the best but only by a hair, the chicken salad slider was fan-f-ing-tastic, and the pork belly BLT only okay.  Last night I had the schnitzel slider, the pork belly BLT slider and the fried chicken slider.  This time, the schnitzel was only okay (HERESY considering how much I LOVE schnitzel), the fried chicken slider was excellent, but the pork belly BLT was divine!  So there was definitely a difference between what I was served each week.  You cannot get out of the Shed for less than $40, it’s just impossible, but we came close to that last night.  The sliders might be cheap but the rest of the menu is on par with the high quality of the Shed.  The wine list continues to please, and along with the slider special they had a $2 beer special, which Dice doesn’t like so he didn’t have.  And the service I always find to be just attentive enough, and never stuffy.  This place continues to be in my top 10 list of restaurants in terms of food quality, price and service.

Just writing aboit it makes me want to go out to eat again, and I can’t tonight.  However, we’ve gone out to eat every single night for the past decade.  Or the last two weeks, whichever is shorter.  It’s like we lasted a month on our $200 per week budget and then went totally nuts!  I’m upset at my own lack of discipline, and about the fact that I can no longer fit into my jeans.  Sigh.
