(Friends, take note.) It is the mark of a cook’s failure. If a guest added salt to something I cooked I would be insulted. The dish was underseasoned so I was forced to add salt at the table. The only way to increase the appeal of the dish would be adding asparagus. My entree, Pasta Flamingo, is described in the menu as Fettuccini, Small Shrimp & Broccoli, Sauteed in Creme, Ginger & Parmesan for $18. Perhaps The Flamingo could add just one more little red potato to the plate next time? I did not taste this entree since I was already twirling to my heart’s content with the fettuccini and cream sauce. I learned in my art classes that a pleasing composition involves an odd numbered grouping. They look kind of sad, balancing themselves on the plate. This is my companion’s entree: lemon-pepper salmon, broccoli and red potatoes, priced at $17. And I HAD to show you the potato serving. The photo below is indeed quite blurry, but it’s all I have. Yummy! Even though this version of clam chowder leaves the cream behind, it was still tasty.ĭo not adjust your monitors. My dining companion started with Manhattan Clam Chowder for $5. I did not care for the slice of garlic “toast” served alongside. As you can see from the photo, it was a lovely little salad. I ordered a cream-sauced pasta with shrimp. The food, and the large numbers of people arriving after us, allayed my concerns that I had chosen poorly. Maybe I am simply smarter than the average tourist who is waiting in a line at a subpar all-you-can-eat trough or at one of the national chain restaurants on the Grand Strand. All the great places are crowded at Myrtle Beach, right? Bimini’s didn’t have a wait but I really enjoyed their food. Surprisingly, we didn’t need to wait for a table and, at first, that concerned me. I could have been sitting on an aqua blue vinyl bench seat out of a ’57 Chevy instead of a generous booth in a restaurant. It has a decidedly retro interior that is fun and flashy. The Flamingo Grill is Miami Vice meets 50’s diner meets seafood.
