TGIF Middleton



It's been a really really (that was deliberate) long time since i've posted a writeup.........for all my avid readers for having waited this long, it's time to get back to reading ways........So!!! i'm gonna write about one the restaurants i've frequenting quite often these days..... TGIF (Thank God It's Friday....for the not so ardent foodies). Well, you must be wondering thatz what i usually write about and why all the buildup. Actually, the restaurant is the same TGIF but here's the catch the scene is completely different......i'm talking about the TGIF in Middleton, WI.





Alright, now read on to find what is different about this place. For starters the setting of the place is totally different quite unlike that in Bangalore. There are basically three different sections here, two indoor areas for the smoking and the non smoking clan and there is the outdoor area for those who like to soak up the sun while they grab a bite.

The decor of the place talks all about the American love for sports. The walls are fully dotted with the memorabilia of Baseball and of course American Football. If you happen to choose to sit by the smoking and the bar area the scene kinda changes a little with the walls covered with all kinds of wallpapers and memorabilia with respect to music and rock and roll. There pictures of bikers, the electric guitar strung across the wall is quite reminiscent to the fact that this place plays great music. Giant TV screens over the bar play the ever famous baseball (well the baseball season was on when I was there……..).




Ok, now you can ask me…this all sound good and well is pretty much seen in Bangalore as well with its ever growing list of theme restaurants. So what’s different????. Well, here’s the difference, the HAPPY HOURS......yes, the Happy Hours surprising ….well I too was the first time I happened to see it. Unlike in Bangalore the Happy Hours don’t last from 11:30 am to 2 PM but instead start at 8 PM all the way to close. Thatz true. Happy Hours start at 8 PM (wonder how many drunken driving cases we would have back home….. ).




Having said that it would be a cardinal sin to not talk about the food here. If you are person enjoys non-vegetarian palate particularly chicken and beef, then trust me this is the place to be. The food is absolutely on the top, great quality and taste. Particularly, the dragon fire chicken tossed in Kung Pao Sauce and served with stir fried brown rice and fried lime and pineapple. This is one of the best dishes I’ve probably had in a long time. Priced at around eight and half dollars for a serving, surely worth every penny. If you ever happen to be there, be sure to one of their appetizers with your favourite drink. The chicken strips tossed they very own special Jack Daniel’s sauce is an absolute beauty. An out of the world mouth watering experience . Every bite brings along a feeling of excitement in your mouth and serenity in the mind(A poetic here to conveys the sensation in my taste buds…….). Simply put the food here is amazing. .


To rate TGIF, Middleton on a scale of 10, it stands right up at number 9. (Very Impressive indeed…….Well!!!! I get to rate it cos I’m the critic in my Blog…….Quite shallow nevertheless )
Well! there goes…. my first post about a restaurant far away from the city of Bangalore,TGIF in Middleton.
TGI Friday’s……..Pure Bliss!!!!!!!!!!!
