So I stopped at an old favourite spot today, I wanted to share a bit of the past with my daughter, we have many times spoke very highly of the chicken, ribs and sauce at Haugen's, this used to be one the best places for BBQ Chicken & Ribs, The nostalgia was at a peak its been over 20 + years since we enjoyed their mouth water dishes. So we stopped to get our favourite Whole BBQ Chicken & Full Rack of Ribs a-la-Carte. Well, either my memory has tricked me or I've been a fool for a very very long time and perhaps nostalgia should be left as a memory. we brought home what was going to be a feast amongst feasts, from days gone by, when cooking was an art and done with love, care an pride. With a huge grin on my face and very pleased with myself for providing this meal for the family. Imagine my immense disappointment when I unpacked this meal, what was supposed to be a whole chicken was cut into quarters and looks like it has been sitting under heat lights since yesterday, there is not a spec of BBQ anywhere to be found and I'm pretty sure the full rack of ribs, was split in half cause it has to be the smallest full rack of ribs I've ever seen in my life. Needless to say the nostalgia has worn off, days gone by are exactly that. I will no longer have the desire or urge to stop in an d buy anything from there again. The days when Haugen's was compared to fine dinning or 5 star status are long gone. Goodbye Haugen's rest in peace's.
