Red Lobster

This is one of those places that I didn't ever plan to go.  I'm not really a seafood fan.  I lived near a coast for about ten years, so the thought of chain seafood in Indiana wasn't very appealing.  But my date (yes, I do have those!) wanted to go there. 

There were very few people in the place on a Sunday evening.  The service was very attentive -- so much that we had to send the waiter away a few times because we kept chatting instead of looking at the menu. 

The waiter brought these amazing bread/biscuit-type things.  I'm not sure what they were, but I could've just eaten those.  I was surprised to see there was a separate, dated menu with a few "fresh" options.  I recall trout and tilapia both being on there, so I suppose it's possible...  I instead ordered the Mahi Mahi -- the most flavorless fish I know (did I mention I'm not a seafood fan?). 

A salad was brought fairly quickly.  It was ok but took up some of the space I needed for the bread :)  When the mahi mahi arrived, it was served atop rice pilaf and next to the tiniest baked potato I've ever seen.  Everything tasted fine -- nothing exceptional (but the bread) and nothing bad.  If someone has a seafood craving, I suppose it'll do.  But I'm not one to have those...
