After visiting Christine’s Aunt in the hospital last Thursday night, Christine’s parents, Christine, her cousin, and myself decided we would go to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. If you’ve never been, you must go because the atmosphere is fun and the food is always great. On a side note: if you are allergic to peanuts do NOT go there because there are peanut shells on the floors as well as peanuts at every table. There is a large sign on the door to prevent people from entering if they do have that allergy. Alongside the peanuts, every table gets a basket of hot buttery rolls that are served with cinnamon butter. I could literally just eat the peanuts and rolls as a meal. Naturally, I went straight for the sandwich menu and although limited, I was able to find something. The Mushroom Jack Chicken Sandwich caught my eye right off the bat and I decided I had to order it to make up for the lackluster chicken sandwich I had at Johnny Rockets just days before. The sandwich comes with a large grilled chicken breast with sautéed mushrooms, melted jack cheese, lettuce, tomato, and red onions.
When I whipped out my phone to take a picture everyone realized I ordered a sandwich opposed to ribs or steak because of the blog, but I really did want it regardless. The lighting isn’t the best inside so I had to use my flash in order to get a half decent picture. It kind of looks like it is glowing. All of the sandwiches are served on Texas sized buns which means they are large but they do a great job of holding in all of the ingredients. Steak fries and a pickle spear come as sides with every sandwich as well. At first bite I could already tell that this sandwich was way better than the one I had recently. The chicken was freshly grilled and had charcoal marks all over it meaning it was cooked over a fire grill opposed to a flat top. The cheese was smoky and did a wonderful job of keeping the individual mushrooms from falling out. The lettuce, tomato, and onion were all fresh and the onion especially had some real snap to it. The sandwich was huge and by the time I finished it and the fries, I was more than stuffed.
Rating: Tasty – Texas Roadhouse is fun and their food it great. What else could one ask for?
