Music while we wait

Every restaurant we go to these days seem to be crowded with long lines stretching out from their main entrance. Many don’t take reservations in advance which means that like it or not, we have to walk in and get in line.

Thankfully some restaurants have music piped out to the outdoor area as well which keep us entertained as we mill around outside waiting for a table to be available to us.

I’m glad for these thoughtful restaurants who may have to maybe spend a little on akai apc40 from musicians friend but at least, we as the customer do not have to endure standing in silence. Music lifts the mood and makes the wait seem shorter so it’s all good.

Thankful tastebuds

I’m back from a bridal shower for my niece. I haven’t had a wedding in the family for a while so this was obviously very exciting for everyone. The food, yes, I just have to talk about the food though I probably should admit first off that I’ve never heard of tungsten wedding bands which is what they’ll be exchanging. Pretty cool.

Now back to the food. The caterer is a friend of the bride’s so you can imagine what an amazing spread she prepared. Not your usual fare. This was a special do for a longtime friend and our tastebuds are very thankful right now :grin: .

In unlikely places

Sometimes it amazes me how the best food can be found in the most unlikely of places. In my previous post, I mentioned we found a new place to eat and we’ve since gone back there twice over 2 weekends.

The strangest thing is that this little restaurant is really (and I mean, really) off the beaten path. It’s nestled in a corner of the city between a store dealing in hydraulic swing clamps and one that specializes in bathroom fittings.

Quite honestly, we would never have found the place if a friend hadn’t recommended it to us. So the moral of the story is that if you’re looking for great food, don’t discount the unlikely spots where you might find an eatery.

Encore meals

Us picky eaters have discovered a new place to eat. It’s hard to please a picky eater’s palate so it’s not often that we can find food that we like, and when we do, embarrassingly enough, we keep going back there for more tasty goodness.

Not only do we like his food, we also think his service and pricing far exceeds what we often get around here. My kids love his choice of piped-in music and can’t get enough of his exciting lr baggs m1a. I can’t say I always appreciate the music my kids like but this time, I have to agree with them. Soothing music does go well with good food.

Ultimate comfort drink

I was drinking a bowl of piping hot soup at lunch today and I was thinking, wow, how can you do this? it’s 90+ degrees out and you’re seriously downing spoonfuls of scaldingly hot soup??!! That said, it was clear soup and so very delicious.

You know, soup is just such comfort food I don’t have a problem drinking it wearing a marmot down jacket or a tank top. Soup just gives you that really good feeling afterwards. Yes, that would be hot soup. I’ve never had cold soup. I don’t think it would be the same. For me, soup has to be hot.
