Abbey Road Pub and Lucky Oyster, Virginia Beach, VA

I tasted the best and worst in Virginia Beach. The best was at Abbey Road Pub. Texture and flavor were top notch. It comes with a bourbon sauce and premium vanilla ice cream, but it can truly stand alone. I am giving it a 4 fork, though I would rate it a 3.5 only because it's so darned sweet. It has baked in brown sugar on top. It was so good my non-bread pudding lover friend liked it (I let her have a spoonful) so much that we went back another day and got 2 orders, because I didn't want to share again!

Maybe worst is too dramatic, but look at this to-go portion from Lucky Oyster and what would you think? This is unappetizing and I really don't like the sliced bread version. Thankfully, Lucky Oyster is famous for seafood, not desserts. Ick! I admit the apples were good and it didn't have raisins, but it looked so afterthought undressed, I couldn't eat it. It came with two sauces and ice cream. I suppose when it's cloaked, it's better.

I am not telling you anything more about Lucky Oyster. For Abbey Road Pub:
Price: $4.99 (a bargain)
Raisins: No
Sauce: Bourbon
Ice cream: Premium vanilla

Welcome Bread Pudding Lovers!

I rarely make BP, but I seek it. If I made it, I'd eat it all so this is the best way I can indulge, one portion at a time.

The rating system goes from one BP fork or thingy (yuck) to four BP (divine) forks or thingies (thingies were predecessors to the forks system).

Note: I do NOT like raisins in my BP, particularly those sneaky yellow raisins, so I'll make it clear if raisins, nuts or other accessories are in the BP.

Another preference is that I feel BP should stand alone. If it needs sauce, ice cream, whipped cream, etc., then it gets a lower rating. If those extras are just extras and the BP is good all by itself, I'll indicate that.
