Okay, there have been some recent changes to the menu at Splitsville (I believe it was on May 19th). One of the new items is called the “grilled avocado” – one of the managers described it to us before it went on the menu and we’d seen a photo on Twitter… It sounded interesting, but a bit odd… How was it?<\/p>\n

It was… interesting and a bit odd…<\/p>\n

\"#splitsville<\/a><\/p>\n

The avocado flesh is scored and the avocado is brushed with oil and grilled… Then it’s placed on a bed of rice… with the skin still on the avocado… strange…<\/p>\n

\"#splitsville<\/a><\/p>\n

Someone suggested that we pick up the whole half (strange phrase) and squeeze out the contents onto the plate and the rice.<\/p>\n

\"#splitsville<\/a><\/p>\n

Ummm, that didn’t work so well… made my hands totally dirty and greasy…<\/p>\n

\"#splitsville<\/a><\/p>\n

The tuna and dressings tasted nice. The fried wonton chips came in handy, but they were pretty brittle and weren’t as useful as corn chips would have been more useful.<\/p>\n

Nick observed that the bed of rice didn’t provide enough stability to simply eat the avocado and tuna “out of the shell”…<\/p>\n

This didn’t do much for us to be truthful… The idea of tuna with abundant avocado is very attractive, but the actual activity of eating was rather problematic.<\/p>\n

We were really hungry, so we also ordered a Fantasy Roll. It was yummy again and all of the elements come together just right.<\/p>\n

the cold whole shrimp on top is a very nice touch<\/p><\/div>\n

\"#splitsville<\/a>

really like that salad and the dressing adds a nice flavor component to the Fantasy Roll<\/p><\/div>\n

\"#splitsville<\/a>

LOVE gari!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"#splitsville<\/a>
