Episode I - Fado (ATL)

First Post!

Fado Irish Pub Atlanta has the honor of being the first stop for the Reuben Ranger.

The Fado Reuben
"Tender corned beef, housemade coleslaw, Swiss cheese and Marie Rose sauce on grilled marble rye served with thick or thin cut chips, or your choice of side"

Appearance - (4.5/5.0)
This was a great looking sandwich. I also loved the sleek plate it came on, it almost made me forget I was about to ingest ~900 calories. The one thing I did not like was the toothpick. I am very anti-toothpick in my food. I am terrifed I am going to forget about it and spear my gums.

Quality of Ingredients - (4.7/5.0)
I really like the rye bread with a solid marble look.  The folks at Fado have gone for a coleslaw instead of the traditional sauerkraut.  I have to say I liked it and it did taste homemade.

Price - (3.9/5.0) 
Coming in at $10.95 this was not cheap but I did enjoying it during "free" trivia.

Je Ne Sais Quoi -  (4.8/5.0)
Maybe it was the fact that it was the first one on this blog I have wanted to do for so long? Maybe it was the plate? I don't know.

Taste -  (9.2/10.0)
The grilled rye gave a nice touch.  The coleslaw was sweet but did not overpower the tender corned beef.  The Marie Rose was excellent and tasted homemade.

Overall - (27.1/30.0)
Solid sandwich. I ate the whole thing and would order it again.



Get excited folks!  More Reuben adventures to come.
