Lunch at Brio's

Mommy And son date.

Any time we hit up WestMed at Ridge Hill Mall in Yonkers, we try to feel better after the doctor visit with a yummy lunch at Brio's.

I was very sad to see that Brio's no longer their great lunch special ( previously I had the shrimp scampi over angel hair for 7.95)

Now they have their standard lunch menu which is the price point is pretty much the same as their dinner menu

I decided to get the BBQ chicken pizza from the Primi section @ 7.95.
How was it? It was ok. Nothing to brag about. It had a bit more quick than what I expected, but still not what I wanted.

I ask the waitress if I could order a plain pizza, which I have tried from my kids dishes, but you cannot order unless is for a child.
Why don't they have plain pizza on the menu ?
I would have prefer to pay the $8 for that.

Then I ordered a Mojito. Horrible. The wateriest Mojito I ever had. Didn't even drink it.

My son ordered Mac and cheese. I suppose it was good because he devoured it. It looked ok. Too creamy for me. It almost looked like pasta with Alfredo sauce.

Survivor !!!! Malcolm

My favorite survivor player was/is Malcolm. Seen him with his hair straight, he reminds me of Fabio. Take look.
