M's Pup Happy Hour Review

Sociable, Charm, and Delectable Food is M’s Pub motto.   Located in the heart of the Old Market, M’s Pub defiantly has the Charm and delectable food. As good as the food and décor of M’s Pub is, the customer service needed work.  One thing I don’t tolerate is poor customer service. Once my party was seated it took 15 minutes for a waiter to bring us water and to say hello. The waiters were busy tasting food that the chef prepared. Now I understand that waiters need to know whats on the menu. When you have customers that don’t even have glasses or menus on the table, you should know whats up! In order for us to receive service we had to wave for a waiter. Oh let me not forget, we also had a time limit!  M’s Pubs Happy Hour offers select apps and cocktails. We sampled the Chicarones, Pretzel Bites, and Sliders. The Chicarones are basically pork skins with Salsa Verde and Cotlja Cheese. Delicious snack that would go perfect with a beer. The Sliders were made with lamb topped with feta cheese, sauce and tomato. Reminded me of a gyro…I love gyros. The food was good, but because of the customer service my whole experience could’ve been better. With that being said M’s Pub gets 2 Smiles. 

The Grey Plume Review

The Grey Plume!!! Located in the heart of Mid-Town Crossing across from the Marcus Theater. I know what you guys are probably thinking, "Allie always doing reviews in Mid-Town." Hey...I love Mid-Town Omaha and I can def say I love The Grey Plume!!! TGP offers discounted cocktails, wine by the glass, and top quality small plates for Happy Hour. HH is daily from 5pm to 7pm by the bar only, so get there early!!! 

Have you ever heard of a "Palate Cleanser?" Normally during 5 course meals in between courses you're served some sort of sorbet. Before your meal arrives the Chefs serves you mousse for your palate cleanser. Whats in it I don't know, but what I do know it was good and I was ready for my meal! 

I had the pleasure of enjoying the Nebraska Steelhead Trout Cake. My, my, my, my, my, my, that trout was sho' good!! hahaha! No but seriously, I've come across dried fish cakes in my day but not this one. What made this cake stand out was the refreshing citrus note at the end. At first you don't taste it then BOOM there it is.  This dish was paired with preserved tomato aioli and a herb salad.....delish!! 

Pear Bacon Chive Flatbread! Def a must try! I LOVED it!!!!!!! I can eat that bacon all day! The perfect ending to my Grey Plume experience was the Duck Fat Donut!!! This heavenly, divine, piece of goodness was EVERYTHING and more! I was expecting something savory but it was sweet and wonderful. I can talk about this donut all day but I won't cause you have to go try it for yourself!

The Grey Plume offers one of a kind experience. If you sit at the bar you can see the Chefs preparing your meal, you hear jazz in the background, and feel like your in someone's Chateau. On top of the 5 star service and food I give The Grey Plume 5 Smiles! ;-)
