Thinking of adding a little fun or theme to your dining experience? Why not enjoy tonight out dining in the Wild West in a cowboy western atmosphere? We’ll go exploring different dishes hopefully without running into any bandits. Dine with Me at Lucky Horseshoe Worthing and be my partner on the journey onward to finding great meals.

            When entering the Lucky Horseshoe you are greeted by friendly folk who assign you to a table depending on the amount of partners you’re walking with. You are then given a menu to choose your meal. The dining area gives you that home town feeling as you hear your heels making a beat on the wooden floor boards on your way to the table. While waiting you watch the bartender over by the side bar pouring a drink to the man sitting on the stool, or the lotto machines singing tunes from the arcade section. The waiter checks back to see when we are ready and we place our orders.


           We waited about twenty to twenty-five minutes until our meals arrived - which is the reasonable waiting time in a casual restaurant. The presentation was impressive. Each dish was garnished well and left your mouth watering at the sight. All is going well and then we all take the first bite and the bandits came running.

Vegetarian
Pasta

  The Vegetarian pasta dish wasn't as appetizing  as it appeared, the white wine sauce was not seasoned, it did not have the right consistency and the wine over-powered it all. This dish lost this round, the pasta was over cooked and smothered in the tasteless wine sauce. The vegetables however were the right texture and crunchy but the sauce (!) It just over powered the entire dish and didn’t give the vegetables a fighting chance. 

Fettuccine and Meat balls

The Fettuccine and Meat balls had a hot shoot out and it was a heated battle. Once again, with the over-cooked pasta this dish came with tomato sauce. The tomato sauce was very peppery, and left you gasping for water from your empty water glass that hasn’t been refilled yet. Meat balls were the only thing on this dish that had taste but was as dry as the desert the cowboys walk on. There was no moisture and it seemed like dry minced meat cooked together.

            

Flying Fish Sandwich
with French Fries

        The last dish facing tonight’s rodeo was the Flying Fish Sandwich with a portion of French fries. Unfortunately, it was too fast and lost its battle, the fish had raw taste and again a lack of seasoning. The bread was toasted on the inside and had the usual lettuce and fresh salad ingredients to make up the sandwich.

Fruit Punch

           

         
   The big show of the night at least could have been the drinks, fruit punch and Virgin Pena Coladas which we were all enjoying. The fruit punch had just enough sugar and blended well. Until we found out that one of our partners was hit! Yes, the waiter got confused with the order and brought two Virgin Pena Coladas and one with alcohol. When we asked for the waiter she just stated that we said two Virgin Pena Coladas, a fruit punch and a Pena Colada. By that time we were just looking to make it out alive. 

Pena Colada

      Our bill arrived - we paid - and headed on back to the city. Maybe next time we city folk would just keep to where we know our meals best.
