With an invitation from Daniella S. to check out Fado's for an UYE, how could I not resist? The original Fado's has moved from Green Valley Ranch and opened up shop on the busy streets of Eastern Avenue. It ended up being quite an intimate event with Tiger W. and Sean S. Our hostess for the evening brought over a round of drinks on the house including some appetizers to try.
* Dublin's Sampler Platter "This favorite combines full orders of our Cheese Dip, Chicken Tenders and Chicken Boxty Quesadillas."
* Cheese Dip and Wedges "A creamy blend of three cheeses served with boxty wedges for dipping." $6.95 - What makes this appetizer unique is their wedges. Tasty things and who doesn't love cheese for dipping?
* Chicken Tenders "Chicken tenders in crisp tempura with a side of our own honey mustard." $7.95 - It really is the tempura batter that makes these tenders pretty delicious! The Big F really enjoyed these treats!
* Chicken Boxty Quesadillas "Our signature boxty potato pancake is richly layered with grilled chicken, melted pepper jack cheese and drizzled with a red chili aioli. Tomato pico and sour cream on the side." $9.95 - Quesadillas that are yummy with the potato pancake mix. Good stuff.
And if you don't know what a boxty is, "Associated with rural sections of Ireland, the traditional Boxty is a gently seasoned potato pancake filled with special ingredients and cooked on a griddle."
Hal Savar plays Fedo on Saturday nights. He is fantastic.
