Haiku Review, Restaurant: Blue Marlin, Leominster, MA

Chowder Overture
Crab-topped salmon aria
Operatic Meal!

There's a new restaurant in town: the fun, island-themed Blue Marlin in Leominster. Mr. Mind-Your-Own-Reality and I had a wonderful meal there Saturday night. Friendly staff, fun decor, casual feel, with "fine dining" cuisine. Welcome, welcome, to the sister restaurant of the Monument Grill! We'll be back!

Our Details:

Crusty rolls
Flavorful Manhattan seafood chowder
Melt-in-your-mouth salmon "crusted" with a fabulous mixture of boursin cheese, spinach, crabmeat and breadcrumbs, with sides of delicious glazed carrots and fragrant jasmine rice. Being on a virtual island as we were, we also had to try the coconut rice- yum!
Everything was wonderful (really wonderful), attractively presented, and served up by the attentive Ryan. (Next time I'm taking a picture of the meal so I can show you out there in blog-land. And next time I promise to try a mai-tai so we can really test out the island feel.)
