*Say this in your BEST deep southern accent* “JUST cuz’ I’m skinny don’t mean I miss NO MEALS!”
Awesome. I’m glad we could clear up those minor details.
The Knife & Fork Gastropub is an uncharted treat my wife and I stumbled upon recently in San Antonio. For those of you who don’t know exactly what a “gastropub” is- its basically an amazing bar with a few things to eat. LOL, no, its a pub (wine bar, regular bar, etc) that all of the sudden added a gourmet chef and now you have a little restaurant with a large libation menu and a petite variety of everything else. For example, this gastropub had only six main entrees but lots of finger foods.
My entree of choice was the Beef Stroganoff; Insert Food Porn.
The pasta was cooked to perfection. The beef was so tender it fell apart like butter and it was seasoned with love. I haven’t had a piece of meat like that since grandma’s crockpot (and that’s saying something.) I left there empty handed because there was absolutely nothing left over to take home.
My wife had the Chicken & Waffles, which she gave 4.5 out of 5 stars and that was because the waffle was beautiful but fell a bit short on flavor. Everything else was mouthwatering (trust me, I ate half of her plate.)
BTW, we went during there happy hour; but I will be back for the Brunch. I saw some Ricotta Strawberry Pancakes- and my SpiderSenses tell me that’s gonna be a #win.
Now, onto the DRANKS! The fishbowl was a KNOCKOUT! Sad part is- it was soooo good that I didn’t even catch the name of it (#turnt). Its the only fishbowl item on the menu that I recall, and thats about all that I recall. Ladies, this drink has 2 straws for a reason. Share it- don’t be like this girl I know that had the fishbowl journey with Nemo and then fell into a comatose sleep at the movies afterwards.
The restaurant felt like an inner city tavern with better lighting. The server was very polite, and it was happy hour so the bill was tipped with a smiley face. I give this place 5 stars. Its everything a gastropub should be!
Bring your floaties!
