This second branch of theirs is really spacious and can even hold functions such as corporate parties, birthday parties, and so on. Although Morganfield's restaurant specializes in ribs, they also offer great appetizers, soups, salads, seafood, burgers, pasta, steaks, and desserts. They certainly have an extensive menu to keep everyone happy. The following are the highlights of our dinner there:
1) SMOKIN' DUCK SALAD- The duck meat was smoked then placed on top of mixed salad which consisted of tomatoes, bell peppers, Lolla Rossa lettuce, hard-boiled egg, and cucumber. It was made richer with the added century egg which I hoped was the only egg placed in the salad. Anyway, the soy vinaigrette complemented well with the entire salad that made it uniquely delicious.
2) JIM BEAM BBQ IBERICO BABY RACK - The baby back ribs were slathered with a mixture of Louisana hot sauce and Jim Beam bourbon whiskey. The server told us that it might be spicy but that wasn't the case at all for us.
Slowly baked in the oven, marinated overnight, and grilled to perfection, the ribs was very tender and juicy. The meat itself requires only tiny effort to pry from the bone. And it was made more succulent with the sauce that we ate the baby back ribs until the bones were the only ones left. The fries and the side dish tasted delicious as well.
3) SMOKED PEPPERCORN SPARE RIBS SET MEAL -- The peppercorn provided a little bit of spiciness to the dish and was the apparent overall flavor. Besides that, Morganfield's restaurant remained consistent by having their spare ribs tender too. The garden salad that we tried with it was normal tasting, but it was good enough.
4) CHICKEN AND HICKORY RIBS SET MEAL - This is a good choice for those who wants to eat more than ribs but doesn't want to go for sharing platters. It comes with 1/4 chicken that is rested very well and the lean meat doesn't taste dry to me at all. Additionally, it comes with ribs that have the same quality as the rest we've tried. The difference there is that hickory bbq sauce was used in it. Meanwhile, the soup of the day during the time we dined at Morganfield's was their spicy gumbo soup. We found it too spicy to taste it well.
5) BREAD PUDDING - It was served warm. And it was a good comfort food as it has a dollop of ice cream on top and the sauce was a sweet "special whiskey" sauce. We easily cut through its soft texture and finished it entirely in just a few minutes. read more
