We asked Eddy what his favorite dessert was and he said Cashew Praline Cheesecake The items on the menu had such wonderful descriptions it took quite some time for us to decide what to order. We settled on two appetizers and a nba jerseys cheap salad. Eddy suggested we split the salad because it was so large. It came out minutes before the hot appetizers which was a bit annoying. I was surprised the stages weren't better timed considering the lack of guests in the restaurant. The Sonoma Salad ($7) contained very tasty baby greens with tangy mango vinaigrette which went well with the candied pecans and dried cranberries. My husband had my portion of goat cheese (which also came with the salad) because I don't like anything to do with goats. He said the cheese balanced out the sourness of the vinaigrette and cranberries with a rich creamy finish. This wasnfl jerseys china the best green salad I have had in Palm Beach County. Next came the Chicken Prosciutto Tempura ($8) which consisted of four skewers of chicken wrapped in prosciutto, dipped in tempura batter and deep fried. A side of slightly sweet tomato dipping sauce came with it as well as a stack of slivered taco shells. The description on the menu was more appetizing than the dish. The prosciutto added little to the flavor of the chicken except maybe to make everything taste like shrimp on a skewer. The whole dish reminded me of mlb jerseys chinacorn dogs except made with chicken. The last appetizer was Dry Rub Grilled Tiger Shrimp ($12.50). It had six large shrimp placed on the sides of a modern martini glass and filled with mild mango chutney in the center. The shrimp were succulent and the salsa had a fresh cilantro taste that complimented the spicy and smoky flavor of the shrimp rub. For the main course, my husband had the Roast Long Island Duck ($18.50) which came with haricot vert (French green beans), crispy wild rice rissoles and sweet gravy. It was very succulent and apart from the gamey taste of the bird my husband really enjoyed it. I had Parmesan Crusted Lamb Chops ($22) consisting of three beautifully presented lamb chops on the bone along with a parmesan crumb topping on each. These were all resting on a mound of haricot vert, yellow corn, quartered pieces of beets and topped off with wasabi mustard gravy. The beans werenba jerseys china al dente so they still had flavor. The lamb was so tender I was able to cut it with a butter knife, which was a good thing because the dish did not come with a steak knife. We asked Eddy what his favorite dessert was and he said Cashew Praline Cheesecake ($8). Unfortunately neither of us was in the mood for cheesecake so my husband ordered Chocolate Infused Bread Butter Pudding ($7.50) which came with Passion fruit syrup drizzled on top. He fell in love with the dish at first bite. He groaned and mmmed so much I knew I had to have some. It was a fluffy bread & butter pudding with pockets of dark chocolate throughout it. Unfortunately, the strong chocolate flavor cancelled out the floral taste of the passion fruit reducing it to a tart syrup. I ordered the Macadamia Crusted Warm Pear ($9) which came with rum caramel sauce. This time the description in the menu understated the dish before me. Talk about WOW factor in a mlb jerseys discount dessert, this one had it. The presentation was surprising and elegant making me reluctant to destroy the work of art on the plate. The glistening golden pear lay in two halves on the plate; one side was encrusted with toasted macadamia pieces while the other was bare. Both pieces were dripping with a buttery sweet rum sauce. Opened two weeks ago this gourmet newcomer, owned by Manhattan Chef Anthony Birtchette (also owner of Tasteful Touch Catering Services), is an added bonus to our Western cities. It's located at 11071 Southern Blvd, suite 160, in the same plaza as Costco. Chef Anthony wanted to open a restaurant somewhere new away from the Delray/Boca scene so he chose Royal Palm Beach. He hopes his restaurant will become a meeting place where people come for the food and stay for the ambience. Sonoma Grille is a fusion of Caribbean and Southern foods with hints of Asian and European. His menu reflects his desire to welcome everyone in. The first thing that strikes you when walking in is the spaciousness of the restaurant with its open floor plan, pale green walls and a black painted ceiling. The glass store front style windows encouragewholesale mlb jerseys a breezy feeling of Sonoma. My husband and I were greeted by Janet, one of the very friendly hostesses, in black, who directed us to a semi-booth/table in the middle of the dining room. Eddy, our waiter, a native of Argentina, quickly came to welcome us to Sonoma Grille. He gave us the wine list and asked if we were interested in any of the over 20 wines on it. We asked for a recommendation but unfortunately Eddy did not have one because he was not a wine drinker. So my husband went with a house chardonnay ($7 per glass), which was a weak table wine that was better for sipping than accompanying the meal. When Eddy brought the wine he said he would give us a second glass for free. This was totally unexpected at such a fancy restaurant; I don't know if the boss knew he was doing this. He brought along a basket filled with warm white bread winba jerseys chinath sesame seeds and a ramekin of sweet cream butter. My husband dropped his butter knife on the floor and before he could pick it up Eddy had brought a replacementÔ %NÍ&decGUwangdu.net±|ÏÄ%–ɾk
