Lawry's Carvery
Sorry, no photos. I've had a mental block lately and keep forgetting my camera. But Lawry's Carvery needed a post!
I was so surprised when C and I met for lunch at the Century City Westfield and saw Lawry's. Apparently the mall food court Carveries has been at South Coast Plaza for awhile, but now it's in Century City too. Curious as all get out, we had to try it.
Consensus: pretty darned good for around $10! It's not like eating a full prime rib dinner in a sit down restaurant, but for under half the price of an entree it's a pretty good lunch. Just watch which slab they cut from; some are more well done than others!
Steak Sandwich with Green Peppercorn Dip: this is a simple sandwich. Slabs of meat on a French roll, served with au jus, a pepper aioli, and house potato chips. My only complaint was that the aioli could have been much more peppery.
Carvery salad: a very well balanced meal! A caesar-style salad, small piece of prime rib, and pile of crispy onions. To make this better, the salad could have been more lightly dressed in a more intense dressing, and the onions could have been hot.
So you see it's not perfect food, but all my quibbles are complaints I'd have at a real restaurant. For food court food, this is pretty darned good eats.
Wedding Checklist:
