Been here a couple times for the same food item: Grilled Chicken (herbed or BBQ sauce)The wraps and quesadillas are good too. but I didn't feel like them today. Anyway today M and I had these:1. Herb chicken + potato wedges + soft drink ($58)The chicken was pretty good. again, tit for tat. rental is incorporated into the price. It was flavorful and soft, but not very tender. the meat was a bit rough, but soft (if you get what i mean). The herby bit was quite delicious. The skin was crisp, not so

Anyway today M and I had these:
1. Herb chicken + potato wedges + soft drink ($58)
The chicken was pretty good. again, tit for tat. rental is incorporated into the price. It was flavorful and soft, but not very tender. the meat was a bit rough, but soft (if you get what i mean). The herby bit was quite delicious. The skin was crisp, not soggy. Not fatty. And they gave you a whole spring chicken. I love that. I love dissecting the whole chicken. Don't give me chicken fillet. Don't give me chicken medallions with the bone all removed. I want an grilled whole chicken, so that I can work through it slowly, and force myself to take smaller bites. It is good. It is what I got today. It came with an olive oil, lemon and herb dressing which was quite delicious. wedges were fine. fair wedges. Still very hot when served.
2. Fusilli in cream sauce with mushrooms. ($52)
Not too bad. At least it didn't feel like they used Campbell soup as a substitute for a proper white sauce.@@. Mushrooms weren't bland but this is definitely NOT a pasta that's up to par. I've had better pastas at the price of $52. Fusilli was not al dente and the thing tasted quite homogeneous. ^^
Environment:
I suppose you'd be lucky to find a seat here. It's very, very packed. but it's a semi-open restaurant so you won't feel claustrophobic.
Conclusion:
This place is OK really, if you need something quick for lunch in Admiralty. But i wldn't deliberately visit the MET. And next time i visit i'll either be having chicken (again), or quesadillas. no more pasta, thanks.
