Thanks to OpenRice, godbro XO wons tickets to see Now I See You 2. We decided to meet up at Times Square last Wednesday to grab dinner and see the movie afterwards. We were checking out the restaurant listings on the lobby and saw that there's a new restaurant on the 11th floor called Mad for Garlic. I believe another foodie friend of mine posted a photo of an awesome garlic bread the night before which is from Mad for Garlic, so XO and I decided to have dinner there.Mad for Garlic's brightly
Mad for Garlic's brightly-lit entrance is hard to miss once you exit the elevator.
Since the restaurant is still in its soft opening phase, there's a sign posted stating that the restaurant is only accepting cash for payment at the moment.
To further enforce the restaurant's garlic theme, there's a cart with plenty of decorative garlic greeting customers in the front of the restaurant.
Once inside, there's a bar area on the right hand side by the entrance of the restaurant.
The restaurant had a really high ceiling and spacious seating, so it didn't feel crammed and noisy even when the restaurant got increasingly crowded.
There's an open kitchen area towards the back of the restaurant.
Once we were seated, XO and I looked through the menu and decided to start with a drink and order our food items one at a time.
We saw that the menu and placemats had Korean on them and did a quick online search and found out that Mad for Garlic is actually a Korean import!

After XO and I took pictures of the awesome-looking tower, the server proceeded to stuff the golden mound of garlic into the baguette and split the tower into 6 pieces of garlic bread.

Who would've thought that garlic could even be in desserts? There was a huge scoop of vanilla ice cream in the middle of the pizza and cloves of garlic and slices of banana were scattered on the pizza.

Mad for Garlic, the new comer at Times Square, will truly make you mad, mad, mad for garlic! The garlic theme carried on from appetizer to dessert, but the garlic wasn't so overwhelming that you felt like they were force-feeding the garlic theme! Definitely a must try for fans of garlic! Just be forewarned that you won't be kissing anyone and can probably even ward off draculas after the garlic laden meal at Mad for Garlic!
