k and i visited city pub last night. first time for both of us and we were pleasantly surprised at the cleanliness of the establishment and the friendly staff and wait staff. it was about 10pm and the pub wasn't packed by any means nor was it a ghost town. k had a pear cider and i had a glass of water and we both shared some cheesy garlic bread to start. two hot and hefty slices of bread with three distinct areas of hot liquid magma cheese on each. i think it was parmesan, cheddar, and molten lava mozzarella. if not, i'll correct this later. k ordered the baby back ribs with a salad withraspberryvinaigrette and i ordered the city pub bacon cheese (swiss) burger, medium-rare, with wedge cut parmesan fries. the ribs were almost fall-off-the-bone good and the sauce was excellent! salad was good with the tasty dressing. the burger was cooked perfectly with everything on the side except for the mayo and i could separate the tastes of the burger, bacon, and cheese very easily with every bite. we both ate half to save room for desert. for dessert we ordered the old fashioned chocolate cake, heated, and the snicker's pie. the waiter suggested we have the cake heated, then haveraspberrysauce poured onto it and top with whipped cream. to avoid an unavoidable meg ryan - when harry met sally moment we decided to just have it heated... okay if you must... me: "i'll have the old fashioned chocolate cake, heated, and i would likeraspberrysauce instead of chocolate if you have it and if the whipped cream isn't fresh and out of a can then nothing." waiter: "not even the cake?" me: "no, just the cake but then not heated." waiter now irritated: "uh huh..." the staff wasn't pushy about throwing us out or anything but they made us feel like welcome patrons from the community. very nice touch. we would definitely return again and again.
