Billy Bombers (Heeren)

It's been maybe a year since I've been to Billy Bombers. I remember trying their burgers there. Quite a couple in fact. A few of us were there and we ordered different ones to try and share. The impression I had of the place was a good one and I thought that I'd be back one day ( that "one day" came only a year later..)

This time we order two main courses to share, out of which one was their promotion 4-meal-set-course. It's actually just a drink, soup, dessert and a main course. Nothing as special as they made it sound like.

The service there was ok I must say. Maybe because it wasn't their busiest time yet, and so we were always attended to immediately. Also, our food was served almost immediately, it was good because I was starving!

My soup came first. It was ok, but nothing different from the Cream of Chicken you get at most places. The "exciting" ones were the main course. We had a sirloin steak and half a grilled honey chicken with BBQ sauce.

The steak was horrible. I wanted my steak to be done medium. It came out with part of it well done like it was over-cooked. It was really tough and more than a quarter of the steak was just fats and there was effectively very little meat left considering it was a small piece to begin with. It was served with 2 side dishes - creamy spinach and potato salad. They both had a weird smell/ taste. Probably the same cream or sonemething used? And the spinach just looked horrible - cream with soggy spinach. It spoils your appetite.

As for the chicken, it wasn't exactly well done. The taste was fine, but it wasn't well done because you can still see red parts on the chicken. It's common you'd say, but it's not what I'd expect from a place like Billy Bombers.

When I left the place after dinner, I didn't feel full at all. Even though they've got nice interior decoration and acceptable service, the food that I had today wasn't worth what I paid. I don't think I'll frequent the place in future..
