True Survivors

I went to Tribeca Grill tonight and was surprised to see that they were hosting a guest chef with a particular claim-to-fame.  The waiter came by to announce that there was a guest chef and he had adding a few items to the normal menu as part of a cookbook promotion tour.  We looked at the additions and "oooed" at the:

Appetizers
African Durban Spiced Shrimp with Kachumbari Slaw
Apple BBQ Glazed Baby Back Ribs

Entrée
Cedar Grilled Salmon with Honey Dijon Balsamic Glaze and Roast Corn Salsa    with Braised Spinach and Leeks

Then he went on to say that if we ordered one of the item, Mr. Famie would be sure to stop by our table and say hello; and that he was famed from the hit show: Survivor.  Ah, what, what?  That put us off almost immediately.  Now, why would we want to eat food that was prepared by someone from the cast of Survivor?

Anyway, we caved and tried the shrimp.  The best I can say about it was that he used cilantro.  The cilantro was nice.  For the balance of the meal, we ordered from the menu and had a wonderful time.
