The Main Ingredient (*****)

Promised Choi I'd write this post awhile ago...

So thanks to Choi parents we were introduced to a great restaurant... The Main Ingredient in Annapolis.We've had both breakfast and lunch at this place and it was AMAZING.

First, Breakfast: These guys rock the greatest meal of the day! I had the best french toast of my life (don't tell the Hudson's Bar and Grill in Vancouver). They took french toast and turned it into a module based meal. The base is excellent french toast. Cinnamon swirl with the perfect amount of egg bath and cook to perfection. About the time you're ordering something amazing goes through your head... "what if I could something that made syrup seem like a cheap substitute for excellence?" The Main Ingredient delivers... and they do it big... pretty much anything you could want (including something that I should have thought before and will never forget BAVARIAN CREAM!!!). In-case you didn't figure it out that's what I had. They do eggs Benedict with the best of them too (Choi had the margharita benedict with sliced tomato, basil leaves, fresh mozzarella, and a sweet basalmic drizzle)! Pretty much awesome!

Second, Lunch: To quote the great Barney... the do it Legen........... (wait for it) dary. Took us about an hour to settle on what to have. I settled on the Sultan's Salad and Choi rocked the Greek Chicken Caesar. Both salads had unique approaches to the salad that made them memorable and highly suggestible. But what topped this lunch off were two (yes two) orders of sweet potato french fries that had the texture of a fluffy donut. These thing exploded like rock songs in your mouth. Makes you just want to die and go to sweet potato heaven! I have seen it... and its a good place to be.
