Daily Grill has relaunched their "Simply 600" menu which is all about loads of flavor and, thankfully, not loads of calories.
So on a recent weeknight evening, I went with some other influencers to give it a try. And while I will grant you that everything I had from the "Simply 600" menu was, in fact, loaded with flavor and absolutely delicious, I must also confess that I totally failed at the Simply 600.
Here's how.
I mean, we started off well - the hummus plate was FABULOUS. The veggies were fresh and delicious and the pita bread was perfection...
But we simply couldn't resist the spinach and artichoke dip, which was warm and cheesy and wonderful. The accompanying crustinis were that perfect texture of not overly cooked and too crunchy, but still toasty.
For my entree, I did stick to the "Simply 600" menu and opted for the blackened ahi tuna salad. Only caveat -- I added shrimp because I had a feeling the tuna might be spicy. Which it was. But by god, it was presented like art. 'Twas almost a shame to eat it....
Oh, but I did also get a side of amazing onion rings for the table. Because we needed a side dish. I have no other reason.
This "Simply 600" fail was not exclusive to me, by the way. Check out what Maya ordered. I salivated.
I did think what Chris ordered looked pretty drool-worthy as well, though, and it was on the "Simply 600" menu. Behold the lettuce cups:
Among our group we are a pretty diverse set of eaters. Carnivores, herbivores, vegans, healthy-eaters, cocktail connoisseurs and so on. And there was easily something (and more) for everyone to try! Whether you do the Simply 600 or not, Daily Grill is reliably varied in choices and delicious eats. It's also a great spot for groups and, I've found, a perfect business meal meet-up location.
Oh, and they also have amazing dessert. This was really the proverbial icing on the sundae (pun intended):
And if that isn't the most successful fail in history, then I don't know what is.
Need more? Well have a look at the menus for yourself!
See you there? I promise we'll order a healthy salad... and some onion rings.
