The Bavarian Beef Dip came with horseradish aoili, mustard, caramelized balsamic onions, beer mustard and aged white cheddar cheese. The bread is advertised as a toasted "Bavarian Pretzel". It actually looked like a fancy toasted sub bun. And of course au jus and a choice of sides.
The presentation was excellent. The beef dip was served on a rectangular white plate with the two pieces of the sandwich criss-crossed on the plate. Visually it was very attractive. The vessel carrying the nectar of the gods -the au jus - was a good size to accommodate the circumference of the "pretzel" for dipping.
The crust of the pretzel was hard and was stuffed with a generous amount of finely sliced roast beef. Initial first dips and bites were very positive, however after a few mouthfuls all the condiments started to skew the taste and became a little overwhelming and took away from the whole dipping process. The pretzel keep it's integrity integrity when being dipped. As far as the beef goes, it tasted good, but it most likely pre-processed beef rather than sliced from an actual roast in the kitchen. I actually had a bite that ended up on my chin when I was unable to knaw through it.
At $13.99 ... an okay value, but almost too much food.
Three dips out of five on the Dip-O-Meter.
