Last night my husband and I were driving around town looking for something to eat. It was the usual "What do you want?" followed by "I don't care, what do you want?" thing. I don't know about most of you, but when I say I don't care I truly don't. Just pick somewhere, and I will find something on the menu I like. Anyway, all of the usual places were PACKED, it was 7:00 on a Saturday for crying out loud. So when we drove past Bennigans, it did not look crowded at all so we flipped a (legal) u-ie and went in. We have eaten at Bennigans a few times before, and I knew they had yummy potato soup so I was pleased to go in.
Well they have changed their entire menu. The waiter handed us a laminated addition to the menu, which showed a special thing they have created called 3 for $20. The way this works is that you can choose one appetizer, two entrees and two desserts from the selected menu items for a total of $20.
My beloved and I split yummy Irish fries, which were french fries covered with cheese, bacon, green onions and sour cream. Then he got the Guinness glazed chicken sandwich, which was so tall the frill pick they cook inserted to hold the monster sandwich together was not visible. It came with more fries. I had the grilled chicken platter which came with two thick and juicy chicken breasts, rice pilaf and steamed broccoli. We finished up with a piece of apple spice cake for me and a chocolate brownie wedge for him. It was delicious, and there was so much food we needed to-go boxes for the leftovers!
I read sometime back that many of the Bennigans closed, and I am super glad that ours did not. We will be back, and this 3 for $20 deal was so great that I had to share it with you!
So go to Bennigans and eat for a reasonable price and enjoy!
