After reading and drooling over all the posts and recommendations made by everyone the last few weeks, I finally made it up to RTC on Tuesday night, with five partners-in-crime.
We started off with an order of the now-famous sausage biscuits. Warm, moist, and unfortunately, gone too quickly. But, had to save room for everything else!
I originally had the good intention of trying the non-RTS entrees, but succumbed to temptation with the filet, diablo-style, topped with all those delicious garlic slivers. Good thing I brought friends from whom I could steal bites of the crab royale (mmm…) and fried chicken (mmm, again…). For sides, we had the crispy spaetzle, asparagus, and the garlic mashed potatoes from RTS, which Michael kindly offered to let us order when he walked by and overheard us discussing them enthusiastically. (Hope we didn’t cause too much trouble for the kitchen!)
Finally, for dessert, we shared the chocolate cake, the cheesecake, and the apple charlotte—all delicious, but I think the charlotte managed to eke out the title of table favorite.
The waitstaff was very attentive and did a wonderful job the entire evening. Our waiter, whose name I'm at a loss for, was particularly helpful with our group’s many questions and general indecisiveness. To top it all off, Michael also very generously comped our desserts. Thanks to RTC for a lovely evening!
