We don't usually review chain restaurants, but this is an exception!
Long Horn Steakhouse in South Portland has a good reputation for steaks, and one of us really likes their Black and Blue Burger, but they have a scrumptious summer special: Strawberry Chicken Salad. It starts with a base of crisp greens, decked with grilled breast of chicken pieces, onions, goat cheese, mandarin oranges, grapes, candied pecans and, of course, sliced ripe strawberries, all topped with raspberry vinaigrette dressing. A steal at $9.99.
When the manager stopped at our table to ask if we were pleasedwith our lunches, we told him the only objection we had was that this was a summer special and suggested that a shift to blueberries might work when strawberry season is over.
Suggestion: If you go there for the steaks, order a strawberry salad to share with our party. You can take some of that steakhome in doggie bags! Speaking of doggie bags, our canine assistants didn't get a scrap of the salad! And we went back three days later for a repeat!
Run, don't walk, to Long Horn to sample this tremendous summer special - available through September only.
Rating: two thumbs up (no paws this time!)
