So, Jesec and I recently dined at Blair’s Restaurant & Cafe to partake of the Truffle Mac that Jesec likes so very very much.
While this mac & cheese was certainly good, and I would probably order it again, I was not as impressed as I expected to be.
It’s a fairly standard mild white-sauced beast, but with truffle oil and SQUARE-HOLED MACARONIES! As I’m sure you can tell, I was most impressed with the shape of the noodles.
Word to the wise… if you’re relying on the shape of your noo-noos to carry your mac & cheese dish, you may want to rethink your recipe.
To be fair, Jesec still vouches for Blairs Truffle Mac, and he also was underwhelmed by the dishes we had that night. Maybe it was an off night. Sadly, though, there’s so much more mac & cheese to try in this world and very little time to do it in.
If I ever find my way back to Blair’s, I’ll try it again, but I’m not going to be going out of my way.
This one’s a “Middler”.
