One of the best things about Elephant and Castle is this appetizer: The Grilled Calamari. It's simply the best calamari appetizer we've tried. The lemon pepper vinaigrette sauce and the extremeley tender calamari made this dish perfect.
This is one of the few times I've eaten a burger without ketchup. The Guacamole Burger (guacamole, cheddar and tomatoes) was juicy and as you can tell by this photo, they did not skimp on the guacamole. I can't complain about combining two of my favorites - guacamole and meat.
We wanted to try one of their Dessert Crepes and decided on the Grand Marnier crepe, which consists of crunchy sugar and Grand Marnier Liqueur. Normally, the desserts are cooked with the alcohol where you can only taste a hint of the alcohol. In this case, it tasted like they poured the entire bottle of Grand Marnier all over the crepe. And we could not taste the sugar anywhere. It was way too much alcohol. We should have ordered their Slovenian Wedding crepe.
There was nothing bad we could say about their smoked chicken sandwich (with roasted garlic, avocado, roasted tomato and horseradish mayo) but it wasn't quite a memorable item either.
Another good thing about this restaurant is they serve omelettes all day. What was awful? Their limited beer selection. Also, how can you have a sister restaurant in Dublin, Ireland and not even have Guinness on your beer menu? What the?
