CFS at Holman's

CFS at Holman's
Originally uploaded by ScrumpyFU

Well, I suppose I was due for a dud. I was surprised, tho', to find it at the usually-reliable Holman's in PDX.

As you can tell from the picture this is one big ol' portion of CFS. Strict German-style breading is a well-proportioned, too. But neither it, nor the meat, nor the gravy even(!) had any trace of flavor. I mean, like, this had anti-flavor, it was so lacking. Bland, flavorless, just defying expectations on any level. There was obviously no rub or spices added to the meat prior to frying; it was then coated in a totally-lacking coating and covered with a gravy that somehow, magically, was devoid of flavor. Again, it was almost as if they intentionally stripped this dish of its flavor, so extensive the intent expressed here. It's like a hate-filled CFS, full of nothing but contempt for those that order it.

And, again, that's very strange since the burgers at Holman's are pretty darned spectacular.

Weird - but, by far, the absolute worst CFS I've had in Portland and, really, anywhere.
