During one of my weight watchers meetings a member recommended the restaurant Energy Kitchen. I decided to search information about it online. While browsing their website it became apparent that they pride themselves on serving food choices all for under 500 calories. Not bad huh? Well my first endeavor to try this place failed, they were closed. However, on Friday I had some free time and decided to try another location (2nd avenue, between 57th and 58th street).
Looking up at the menu I decided to try a bison burger and a side order of baked fries. While I appreciated the under 500 calorie enticement, I felt disappointed in the quality of the food. The lettuce and tomatoes inside the burger did not taste fresh. The bison meat was plain and not very flavorful. Although, the wheat hamburger bun was enjoyable. As for the fries, it was a good portion size and did not feel too greasy. Overall I'm not impressed with the quality of the bison burger; I'd rather eat a McDonalds hamburger. Perhaps I need to give it another try but with a different dish next time. I noticed that Energy Kitchen claims their chicken fajita is the most popular. In the future, giving this place another try is possible.
On the brighter side I did get a 15% discount for showing my weight watchers pass. Energy Kitchen's menu is pretty extensive and even offers smoothies. Give it a try! Let me know what you think.
