I have to admit, I was more excited about eating this meal than most meals. The biggest problem Banquet dinners have are their sides. They are terrible for the most part, but this meal had pasta, which made me feel more optimistic about it. The pasta and it was good. The sauce did have a hint of zestiness and Italian herbs and spices, but like a lot of banquet sauces it had a watery flavor at the same time. The chicken was well seasoned, but the texture of the meat left much to be desired. Furthermore, the chicken was an ice cube in the center after the full extent of recommended cooking. The cooking directions explicitly state to get the inside of the chicken to 165F. I am sure that this did not happen. I am unsure of what is going to happen to my body because of this. Overall this was pretty satisfying for a banquet TV dinner. It is certainly more classy than most banquet TV dinners and perfect for dinner dates. However, be careful, because food poisoning doesn’t help make a good first impression. Overall rating: 73%
