Feeling the urge to indulge in a steak ranch eating plan, the MunchieStuff clan made their way to the Kings Steak Ranch in Belville today. Truly an enlightening experience. To say that Mrs M was conflicted in the writing of this review, is an incredible understatement.
The decor was not encouraging, and the bathrooms had seen better days. The child friendly zone’s games were on the blink, and the dodgy wooden bridge and few building blocks on a mat hardly constituted a child’s play area. The food was brought through after quite a long wait, and the children’s food and milkshakes arrived quite a while after the adults’ food.
That being said, the food was surprisingly good. Mr A and Mrs M (ten minutes into the Kings experience) had resigned themselves to a kitchen equivalent to the front of house (lack of) service. Mrs M was delighted to realise that Baby J and Big M’s macaroni and cheese was tasty, and more to the point in kids’ cuisine these days, actually had a cheese sauce.
Mr A ordered a mushroom burger, with a sauce which he absolutely relished. The fact that you could start an oil refinery with the onion rings left a bit to be desired. Mrs M’s pepper burger was exquisite, a delightful moment in an otherwise odd afternoon.
