Food, Glorious Food


      

Anyone
who reads any of my blogs will eventually realize that I am a
chowhound-- except for oyster plant there is not a food I won't eat
including frozen pizza--I am more of a gourmand than a gourmet. Oh, do I
have to mention that I have a partner in crime? That's Allen.

******************************************************************

    

The
above pictures were taken at the Rendezvous restaurant which is one of
my favorites. Allen had the Steak Frites while I had the Seafood Crepe
and my first piece of chocolate since July, a French pastry.

      



Seafood Crepe on the left and Steak Frites on the right


Chocolate Pastry

******************************************************************

And then we tried the California Pizza Kitchen AGAIN and was, once again, disappointed so it is off the list of places to eat!



Carmalized peach salad--sounds a lot better than it tasted.

*******************************************************************

    

As always I give a place a second chance and this was Pei Wei.

     

Above, on the left, are Pork Egg Rolls and on the right Mongolian Shrimp.

*******************************************************************

    

                            On the left Greek Faccio--on the right a big peppercino!

After
the movie on Friday we went to a place that I like but haven't been to
in a long while and that is Sweet Tomatoes--won't even attempt to tell
you what I ate there but did have salads, chili, soups, pastas, bread
and, oh yes, desserts!

 


Strawberry and Chcoclate Mousses, Chocolate Lava Cake, Swirl Ice Cream

"More, Sir. Can I have more Sir?" "Food, Glorious food!"

I love Sweet Tomato. Actually, any buffet type place, including Old Country Buffet. As long as I don't have to cook or clean up, I am happy.

Only problem I have with buffets--well wherever I eat--is eating too much!

There is more in life than food.I can take it or leave it.
Rather be flying off to somewhere.To each its own.Enjoy your food.
Nothing there make me exciting to see.I will stick to Captain Crunch.I mean the food.

I seriously don't know how you keep your weight down! You should have included that two-fisted eating photo in your survey last month. Gracious!
