Usually when I go to someplace nice for dinner, I like to do a full write up about the meal here. I won’t be doing that for The Club in Dallas. It had an interesting atmosphere, and that is what I was looking for, but the food was mediocre as was the wait [...]
Let me save everyone sometime. The French Room is awesome, and I think most people would enjoy dinner there, as long as they were willing to try something different. There is no need to pretend, the wait staff is very friendly and rather laid back, and the menu consists of mostly thing that [...]
My wife is gluten intolerant, and in a rare attempt to be nice, I made gluten free veal marsala.
Veal marsala is a fairly simple dish. Given some veal cutlets from the butcher, first season and flour the cutlets and sauté for one to two minutes per side. Remove the cutlets from the pan, [...]
First, two things about Pinot Noir.
I drink Pinot as much as for the after taste, as for the taste of the wine itself. What I am looking for in a Pinot Noir is a mineraly taste, that is nice a clean on the tongue. But afterwards, I am looking for a [...]
In the spring 2007 semester, I completed 19 hours at UTD while working full time, bringing me within two classes of graduation. This summer, unless I totally screw everything up, I will graduate with my BS in Computer Science.
Of the 19 hours, only 7 hours were CS classes. Even of the 2 CS [...]
Absolutely SUCKS.
Luckily, I didn’t pay for it.
Even better, I did not make the mistake of giving it as a gift myself, but I will keep it in mind the next time I am socially obligated to give a gift to someone I dislike.
I wonder if my sister in law hates me?
Last weekend was our anniversary, and a friend had given me a Morton’s coupon earlier, so I made reservations at Morton’s.
Getting to Morton’s, like everything else in downtown Dallas, is a real pain, unless you already live there. After driving by the grassy knoll a couple of times, we figured out which side of [...]
I just finished off a pint of Ben and Jerry’s cookie dough ice cream. Most people finish off a pint in a sitting, this pint lasted me 4 desserts.
I have to admit, I typically only have two small scoops of ice cream when I do have dessert, so 4 servings from a pint is [...]
It is true, the internet said it right here.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day. St. Patrick’s Day is a religious holiday in Ireland, so don’t drink green beer. Give confession like a good Catholic, then then have a nice pint of Guinness down at the local pub.
So I have had my good for me this [...]
Flower mound has a new farmer’s market store called Sprouts (Think Whole Foods or Central Market on a smaller scale). Fresh produce and dairy are cheaper at Sprouts then Tom Thumb and they are only about two minutes further away, so I will be a frequent shopper.
Sprouts has a small selection of wine from [...]
