There is nothing more
disappointing to me than bad chicken parmesan. It's one of my favorite
things in the world and when restaurants screw it up it's like they
kicked my dog (if I had one) or keyed my Porsche (if I had one). In
other words, it's like they took something I love and intentionally
destroyed it just to spite me. I'm not sure who this Federico is,
but he must have a picture of me in the kitchen with a big "don't
serve Mr. Hipster anything good" sign over it. He went nuts with
the chicken mallet back there and smashed my chicken breast into atomic
dust. He then breaded this dust, threw some cheese and tasteless sauce
on top and served it to me with a devilish grin. Seriously, it was
like eating a plate of fried, tough breading in a puddle of lukewarm
ketchup. Maybe there are some dishes on the menu that are okay, but
if the place can't make a good chicken parm, then it ain't worth squat.
