Review of Calamari Rings at Love Handle by stevenneoh

If you're going to compare this to, say, Nature's Charm and their abominable little product then of course this wins, but that's an incredibly low bar for #fried #calamari rings. From its tired presentation to the there-but-not-quite chewiness of the texture (thanks, #mushroom 😏), this wasn't top-pick material. #tartarsauce distinctly ordinary 😐

At least there was no actual #seafood in it. Last night I was at a family thing and they cooked me a vegetable curry. After the meal they told me that they had used tiny dried shrimp to enhance its flavour, and hoped I didn't mind because "so small only" 😒 I am actively non-militant and compromise-seeking in how I deal with these things, but that was borderline for pushing me over the edge 😪
