Lawry's

Dinner was at Lawry's today.



Thanks to Lionel who alerted me about their The More The Merrier promotion they had.

40% for 5 main course and above.
30% for 4 main course and above.
20% for 3 main course and above.

Discount is only valid for main course.

naturally, i tried to rope in at least 5 person to enjoy the 40% discount.

the crowd....



the bread that was served....



a few of them topped up their main course with $17.80 to get a serving of red (or white) wine and dessert....



the spinning bowl salad...







the vegetables does look fresher den my first visit but i still think its merely just thousand island salad. in lionel's words, it'll be called too gimicky.

Alvin ordered the chicken ($36.80)....



(picture taken by Alvin coz plate was too hot to be shifted) it looks abit like some Long John Silver chicken wrap. Taste wise, its got a very chinese taste. The chicken is chicken breast meat. Not worth the price.

Junting had the salmon ($43.80).....



i think the presentation looks a bit.. complicated? haha.. i only had a bite.. to me, its just salmon. lol.. very not worth the money if u ask me.

the rest of us (Sorina, Meina, Aloysius and myself), all went for the prime rib. Served by the chef wif a wagon...



the prime rib...



Sorina's california cut ($54.80)....



She requested for it to be done medium.

the rest of us had the diamond cut ($94.80)..



a really big and thick piece! I think the Lawry's cut should do better. done medium rare. The prime rib was nice!! i like this and its nicer den hogs in my view coz its served warm unlike hog's. but of coz.. with price being a factor of consideration, hogs would win. the au jus went very well with the yorkshire pudding which meina really liked.

the choice of dessert for the set meal included strawberry cheesecake..



tastes ok. Aloysius found it quite nice but i didnt quite like it. Prefer bakerzinn's.

some blueberry pie with ice cream...



also tastes ok to me. Meina found it nicest of the dessert.

i ordered a seperate creme brulee upon recollecting how good it tasted during my previous visit....



however, this time, it didnt wow me at all. While it was decent, it didnt taste robust like the previous time. i was quite disappointed paying $8.50 for an item like this.
