Brickwood...happily again!

An unprovoked revisit to Brickwood! 


Weekday rush and want of time made us unapologetically jump the appetizer. ‘Stuffed Chicken’ and ‘Juicy Chicken’ steaks were what we ordered for lunch. Paired with roast potatoes and herbed rice, the steaks just shined. Found a Ramesh Sippy in the chef who, in steaks, could masterfully combine Gabbar’s notoriety with Shakal’s neatness. Delicious! The stocky steak in particular - liberally stuffed with herbed cheese and chicken shreds, overwhelmed with an atypical yet pleasing taste. The meat in ‘Juicy Steak’ appeared bearably over-roasted. Tiny roast potatoes lent jest to an otherwise modest platter. Sleek, filling, delectable, and repeatable. Voila! The scant serving of rice, proving inadequate to accompany the steak till the end, made me order Pulled Cheese Garlic bread. That too impressed with softness and a generous fill of cheese – fittingly complementing the steak and the sauce. 

I gushed out a muffled belch and smiled. I always dreamt it that way!
