Bridges, the Fair-Deal Steakhouse in old town Danville
Weekend food stroll in white-dominated old town Danville! The small town of Danville might not ring a bell for many Southies; it's located halfway between Walnut Creek and San Ramon. Known for its good schools and wealthy residents, it’s home to quite a few old-money families!
Today dined with a friend's family at Bridges, a top pick as per online reviews. Despite being an historic American restaurant, the fusion of Asian and American cuisine was surprisingly delightful! Let's talk about our food experience:
Starters:
*Brussels Sprouts, Pic 4, $13. A classic American side dish! It was well roasted, wasn't bitter, the exterior was crispy while the center remained soft!
*Truffle Frites, Pic 5, $10. There was a little suspense concerning this dish. Where's the truffle in these truffle fries? Assumed there would be at least a sprinkle of truffle dust. However, after tasting, the mushroom flavor was noticed, it seems the truffle was added before cooking!
*Lettuce Wrap, Pic 6, $19. Full of Asian essence, the filling was a mix of chicken and shrimp, rolled in fresh veg. The taste was refreshing!
Main course:
*Bridges Burger, Pic 7, $19. This huge beef burger with fries was ordered for the kids, a meal that filled them up! Forget fancy dishes when taking kids out, you can never go wrong with burgers and fries!
*Grilled Atlantic Salmon, Pic 8, $31. The salmon was delicious, oily, tender, and plenty was provided. The picture makes the fish look small due to the plate size.
*Thai Curry Prawn, Pic 9, $33. A sudden appearance of a Thai main course amidst all the expected American dishes, was a surprise [LaughCryR]! It was sweet to taste, and the prawns particularly stood out, very crunchy!
*Prime New York Steak, Pic 10, $49. Ordering steak in a White Town steakhouse can't go wrong, Medium-Well cooked steak with a flavored surface, perfect when cut open, [OKR]!
Need to praise the excellent service at the end! Serving, refilling, clearing the table, and packing up left-overs
