    Plenty of parking.

    It seems this restaurant opened in Halfmoon just over two months ago and I've unfortunately overlooked it. It was the Yelp reviews that called my attention to it. I know nothing about Afghan food and have been wanting to try some. Looking at their menu, I was a little disappointed at first as I didn't see something that I'd never heard of before. While not as an Afghan preparation, I've had Tikka and Kofta dishes before at Indian restaurants. I've also had Shawarma and Gyro preparations at Turkish and Greek restaurants. Falafel has always been a favorite of mine at numerous middle eastern restaurants. And then I saw it! A dish served with lamb shank (I've written before that lamb is one of my weaknesses) that is the renowned national dish of Afghanistan served at weddings, parties, and special occasions - Qabuli Palow ($23.09). AI tells me that it roughly translates to "well accomplished," indicating the skill required to balance its complex flavors. I ordered the meal to go, as my wife did not see anything that was currently on her diet. I decided to bring her a side of Hummus ($9.44) so I wouldn't eat alone. Once I opened the bag at home, I realized the chef may have forgotten to include pita for the hummus. She enjoyed it in any event as it was creamy with olives, chickpeas, and diced vegetables on top. The container with the Qabuli Palow was very heavy. Upon opening it I admired the colorful julienned carrots and raisins over the rice pilaf. I assumed the meat was beneath it all. As my fork hit a piece of lamb as I went for my first taste, the weight at the end of the fork was much more than I was expecting. It kind of reminded me of the cartoon character fishing and seeing the fishing pole bend as he began to reel in what was on the hook. But instead of a dirty, waterlogged, old boot I had found a lamb shank, bone-and-all. A few forkfuls later I hit paydirt once again, a second lamb shank. This was definitely going to be a two-meal dinner. The lamb was soooo tender and flavorful. It was easy to remove it from the large bones. The rice was tasty and the spattering of raisins, some plumped up, gave a touch of sweetness to many of the forkfuls I was enjoying. The restaurant is clean and inviting with both tables and booths. If you are going to dine-in, it appears that you place your order at the counter and take a seat. I only saw orders to go during the short time I was there. I arrived at the designated twenty minutes after ordering and my order was immediately put together once I identified myself. There is one thing you should be alert to. If you place your order online for pickup as a guest, and you choose to pay in person when you pick up your order, you will be given the opportunity to include a tip during your online order submission. Once you arrive at the restaurant to pay, the computer system on the counter will give you a second prompt to add a tip, even if you already included a tip while placing your order.

It being July 4th, Independence Day, I thought it would be an appropriate day to enjoy a hot dog. Just ask Joey Chestnut! I'm not going to reduce my # of *s because we really enjoyed our food and beverages. But I do have to question what I had to drink. The board said it was an Ommegang Grande Tripel stout at 5.5 ABV ($9). That level of ABV would be reasonable for a stout, but the color of the brew was golden like a typical Tripel, and not dark like the typical Stout. The bartender gave us a sample, and it was full of flavor with my wife noticing the vanilla tones that were described by the bartender. I didn't initially identify any specific flavor other than delicious and different than I would have expected from a stout. I also would not take issue with the posted 5.5 ABV. HOWEVER, a quick reference to Ommegang online as I write this says that it is a Belgium Tripel and the ABV is 9. Yes, NINE ABV! I would definitely have noticed if I were drinking a 9 ABV on an empty stomach. I also would have noticed it driving the car after finishing a pint within one hour. For those familiar with Utah Phillips, "It was good though!" But on to the food. We ordered a shareable Tot-Chos ($12.99) consisting of tater tots, tomatoes, avocado, cheese sauce, pickled jalapeños, and chipotle aioli. These were very tasty and not too spicy, with crispy on the outside and soft on the inside tots. My wife ordered the Sooo Cali ($10.99) hot dog. The black angus beef hot dog is very tasty even before it is topped with wild arugula, tomato, avocado, crispy onion strings, and spicy basil aioli. The combined flavors work well together on the Kings Hawaiian rolls. My choice was to try the Hogfather ($10.99) - a pork bratwurst with bacon chipotle onion jam, chipotle aioli, and miso ranch. The bratwurst was delicious and again, the flavors worked well together. BTW, my wife had a Grimm Nothing But Citra ($8), an IPA that even I found acceptable. We really need to return here more frequently.

Bartender was friendly and responsive; we split the chicken bacon avocado sandwich and the bbq pulled pork mac. The chicken sandwich was nothing to write home about, but it wasn't bad either. The bun was a simple hamburger bun. The mac n cheese was top tier, came out piping hot and had a good amount of pulled pork and Cole slaw on it. Even between the two of us we had to take some home. Personally I would get regular Mac without the pulled pork next time. I also got a glass of the Italian pino Grigio which was pretty good and reasonably priced. Our meal came with free chips and dip, but we tried to hold out for the main course. I heard their burgers are divine, so I would come back for that and maybe get their home brewed beer. I liked the open barn style bar and would love to try the outdoor seating sometime.

The bartender seemed far more focused on socializing with friends, the hostess, and an off-duty employee than on serving the guests sitting at the bar. At one point, we sat for more than seven minutes with empty drinks at a bar that was nearly empty. Despite making several attempts to get her attention, we weren't acknowledged until another employee noticed us trying to flag her down and stepped in. Even then, there was no apology or acknowledgment of the delay. Unfortunately, this wasn't an isolated moment; it was the pattern throughout the evening. Conversations with coworkers & friends consistently took priority over customer service, leaving us feeling ignored despite the bar having very few customers. The food was still very good, but the level of attentiveness and professionalism from the bartender fell well below the standard.

But the burgers are usually just how I expect it, not burnt, and always great. One thing I'd love to point out is that they seem to have (finally) changed the fry container from a coffee insulated cup which makes fries soggy to a normal paper bag type container. Montreal area had this last time I went to Canada and it was a welcome change. My order today came with the paper bag container for fries (plus the typical "bag fries" which are always a highlight)... and it was much better.

An earlier email reminder from the Mealeo CEO that I had over $3 in Mealeo credits reminded me that this would be a good opportunity to place my order at Country Drive-In through Mealeo to take advantage of my rewards. I was initially surprised that upon placing our order at 6:30 pm that it was not going to be ready until 7:15. But when I arrived at CD-I at 7:10 I could better understand. They were slammed with customers. I let the pickup window know that I was there for my order, and they said they would check on it. At exactly 7:15 they brought my order to the window. Ahh, reliable efficiency! My wife had decided to order a Tuna Melt ($8.39), I went traditional with the Sausage sandwich ($9.59), and a large order of Homemade Onion Rings ($7.19) for us to share. The Tuna Melt had little if any tuna flavor, very disappointing. The Sausage was one of the best I've had from them (there have been some off years recently). It was just greasy enough with the peppers and onions on top of the sausage patty that the fresh and soft brioche bun (not the hard roll indicated on the menu) prevented any loss of drippings for a flavorful bite each time. The onion rings were perfect this time also. Not overly greasy even as they cooled down. All of this is why we keep returning every season.
