Dark Dining - Anyone try it?
I'll admit it...I went.
It's one of those "Interesting but I'll never go again" experiences.
I had chicken....$100 chicken. The food was ok, but let me say again...it was $100 chicken.
The interesting aspect is being in the dark. That was kinda cool. One of my friends starting having a panic attack, but settled down after a while. And it really is dark. No ambient light at all.
Short story...if you got nothing else to do and some extra cash to burn...sure...give it a shot. But don't go for the food....
Pie 'N Burger; old thyme SoCal
Double cheeseburger, with bacon and raw onion.
1/2 order of fries.
1/2 order of hash browns.
Love this place.
Best butcher to buy a prime rib
Don't think Costco would lie about this. And if you don't think it's prime, wrap your head around this one:

Good and Bad Pho in the San Gabriel Valley
It's actually called "Vietnam House", and yes same family as GD/SF. Pho here is pretty good, this is my normal go-to place.
Ocean Star downhill, alas
Went to Ocean Star this past Saturday, and got to agree...it's gone downhill. Food is bearable, but no where close to what it was a few years ago. However, NBC has gotten down right terrible. Went there couple weekends ago. My fiancee was so disgusted with the food that we walked out after ordering several dishes. I'm pretty sad over this since NBC's been my go-to place for over 20 years now.
Elite's been one of the few places that have remained reliable.
Brits in Pasadena?
Love this place. I try to convince my gf to come with me at least once every couple months. We usually split an order of fish and chips, bangers and mash, and a Guinness. Perfect weekend lunch.
