The Order:
All by my lonesome for lunch, I wanted to keep things simple. A little menu browsing led me over to Press Restaurant. It doesn’t get much simpler than five main courses (all wraps!), and a five-star rating (one for every wrap?) meant I was sold. My selection? The Steak Wrap. Surprise! Once you select a wrap, you get to choose everything about it, so my order was really just getting started. I selected the plain wrap, and added tomatoes, crispy onions, and shredded mozzarella cheese to my rare steak. Press is a pretty health-conscious place, so I could have gone with a whole wheat wrap or even made it a salad, but I thought ignoring the barbeque sauce and honey mustard was healthy enough. Then again, I added Hand Cut Fries, so who am I kidding. The things I do for you all…
The Meal:
The food didn’t come fast, but it did come on time, and with snazzy packaging to boot:
Pretty cool, right?
The problem? The food wasn’t that hot. In particular, the fries were more warm than hot and more soggy than crispy. After a quick hit from the microwave they were better and I could tell that the flavor (read: salt) was definitely there, but it just further stressed the “get ‘em while they’re hot” lesson that McDonald’s fries first taught me all those years ago. As for the wrap? After being heated up, it was delicious. The steak was clearly the real deal, and I loved the melted cheese, while the onions really made the whole thing pop with flavor. Size-wise, it wasn’t huge, but it was certainly enough food for lunch. Portion control, people, portion control.
It's a wrap...with fries
