Chicago Rib Shack (145 Knightsbridge, London, SW1X 7PA) Went there last week 8/09, fan of the old place and hoping for a reprise. First course, one quarter of iceberg lettuce with good blue cheese dressing, surprising very good, Ribs for both us, very poor, had baby rack and st Louis ribs respectively- very disappointing, barbecue sauce was foul, Onion loaf- the thing we most remembered from the old place was swimming in oil and my last bite was a chunk of quartz in the disk, showed the manager who deducted that off the bill, lucky I did not lose a filling. What a disappointment- nostalgia ain’t what it used to be, try the chilli ribs in harvesters or go to Tony Roma’s in the states, this was very poor.
