No. 38: Surf and Turf Roll from Nectar Lounge
The sushi bar inside the Seminole Coconut Creek Casino's Nectar Lounge has put out
some interesting dishes, like rare farm-raised Kindai tuna and dessert
sushi with fruit. But the surf and turf roll has us coming back for
more. The straightforward concoction is packed with Florida lobster
and topped with
slivers of beef tenderloin that have been put to a kitchen torch. The
seared
tenderloin on top is a fab finish, and
additions of asparagus, avocado, and a sweet eel sauce round out the
flavors. At just $13, this roll is a steal
and seems well-suited for the environment -- high-rollers sit at
the sushi bar and scarf these like candy, as do slot jockeys watching
the
cover bands play on Nectar's main stage.
