Assuming those two thingies to the right are oysters they look
masticated and spat out... and I see no cole slaw. Everything on that
plate including the presentation itself is repulsive... I'd not want
it even if the Club paid me... if that's a sampling of what the Club
serves I'd rather dumpster dive. Really, that is BAD!

I didn't include the cole slaw in the picture. I figured how badly
could they screw up a simple fried seafood platter? Obviously they
could, and they did. Yes, those practically uncooked blobs were
supposed to be oysters. I threw them out. I've had much better food at
Dead Lobster!

When I went to pick up my dinner one of my (seasonal) neighbors was
having an appetizer at the bar. He said, "Now you know where I go most
nights! I don't cook and I have to make a dent in that dining
assessment." You and me both, pal. He said, "Yeah, but you're here all
year." I smiled. But what I was thinking was hey, it was your decision
to buy and furnish a home here but not actually *live* in it. Heh.

I think this is the first time you posted a picture of a Club meal,
and now I know why they insist residents buy it or lose it... no one
would eat that garbage otherwise... the people who run that
establishment know absolutely nothing about the food business, and
they certainly have no one there who can cook... the only way they can
support that joint is by having a captive clientele.

Obviously the result of more dollars than functioning brain cells... I
can't imagine why anyone would choose to live there full time or part
time. Actually it makes more sense to live there part time, if
someone has the bucks and lives to golf, but full time, no way,
especially if one doesn't golf. Living there all year is much too
isolated, it's not any kind of a life, and certainly not on a tight
budget and all alone. I were you instead of constantly complaining I
would have been long gone.

There are lots of full time residents who don't golf. Not every house
here is on the golf course. Hell, you could put a golf course in your
back yard and charge admission! Turn that little rental house into a
Pro Shop.

This neighbor does like to play golf but he doesn't have a golf
membership. He plays golf at public courses in the area. The dining
assessment applies to all homeowners. I guess he (and when his wife
joins him) have to eat there a lot in the short time they're here to put
a dent in it. But I doubt it hurts their wallets too much, since
they're also paying monthly dues even when they aren't here. That and
maintaining another home in another state... they can afford it.

BTW, I don't post about the meals or the menus to complain. Sometimes
they're simply amusing.

I guess lots of people don't care whether the fish is from fresh water

I think the important thing is it's not terrestrial. Like in the menu
selection "Surf and Turf".

After looking at that pic... IMNSHO, somebody needs to demonstrate to the
'best in the area culinary staff' how to cook food (any food) without over
cooking or under cooking it.

You see why I'm reluctant to eat there? I figured *anyone* could make a
simple fried fish/seafood platter. Apparently not.

I *did* have a very good meal from the Club last year. Steak & Kidney
Pie. Made with *lamb kidneys*. It was superb! It was a dinner special
which has sadly never been repeated.

Still, I thought hmmm, I could make this myself. So I called around
asking about lamb kidneys. Nope. Not at the meat market in town, nor
at the supermarket. I suppose I could give it a try using beef kidneys.
Then I'd also have to make pastry.

And that is what they expect her to use her (assessment?) on? Pah, wine is

I'm guessing that they had a chef who *could* cook at that time, but
resigned because s/he got tired of being surrounded by idiots - or some
trumped up excuse was made by management to fire him/her because s/he put
the rest of them to shame...

That is quite likely. There is one man listed as the head chef but I
know he's not the one doing anything much when it comes to cooking.

ven my father used to complain about the inconsistency of the food. He
mentioned chef turnover, but that would have been many years ago.

Still, the Club is where I got my inspiration for Roasted Butternut
Squash soup.

Dad and I went to lunch there years ago. The chef at the time was
Japanese, IIRC. The soup of the day was squash soup. I asked the
server, what kind of squash? She had to go ask. Butternut squash.
Okay! I ordered a cup of soup to go with a hamburger. Dad did the
same. Very good soup. When I went back home I re-created it. And
improved on it. My version calls for roasting the squash first. And
adding just a little tarragon at the end. :-D

Aha, so that's where you got the idea from. FWIW, I've made your
'improved' version according to your recipe - more than once. And yes, it
is indeed good; my whole family enjoy it

My soup making lesson called for sauteeing it, along with pumpkin,
carrots, celery, onion and garlic. I learned that it is much easier to
skip the pumpkin and to use roasted squash. I use a little bay leave
when making it, but that gets taken out and I add hot curry powder.

Thanks for the pic, Jill. Those oysters were barely fried (as you
said) but at least you know they probably weren't overcooked. They're
so small though...wth? I suspect they aren't whole small
oysters...they probably cut normal sized ones in half. Not something a
supposedly good restaurant would do.

The fries might have been good but they looked pretty dead to me in
that picture.
You got a good chunk of catfish though.

Yeah...those two little lightly fried things were baby oysters fried.
No cole slaw in that picture. Jill doesn't like it. She either told
them to skip it or she left it off of her plate.

How sad. They were probably the tastiest thing on that plate. You

They appeared to be practically raw. The breading was definitely raw.
Sorry but I did throw them away.

That's about par for their fries. They try for "steak fries" but they
don't cook them to nice and crispy outside, still tender inside. I
could make better fries by <gasp> *baking* Ore Ida steak fries in my
oven!

It was a good sized fillet but they cooked it too long. Burnt spots on
the breading. The fish was tough. I think they could fry a better
fillet o'fish at McD's. The shrimp had also been overcooked. The
scallops, not too bad but just on the edge of oops! I could (and have)
made much better.

I can't believe she brags about this garbage on a regular basis. Someone refresh my memory on why she lives in a retirement community when she's in her 50's? Oh that's right, she flopped on her own and lives on her mommy and daddy's accomplishments, and ****s a married guy that flies into town a few times a year! And she moans and groans about her "food allowance" that is basically from living in a ****ing retirement village. Boo ****ing hoo, who the **** cares.

But....but.....then she wouldn't be able to whine about her parents that have been dead for years.....and.....and.....then she might have to be an adult!

I've never seen such a pile of shit in my life. Living on in one's parent's retirement community because one can't get anything else going in one's life, now that's a hot one.

Jill is a ****ing loser.
