Oot and aboot again
This time to the Session Room, an old pre-covid fave of ours for occasional weekend afternoon decadence. We have been there a couple times since covid. They have wonderful outdoor seating for one thing. Tonight we took Pengo out there and braved the indoors. It was fine. I am working on getting more restaurant dining back into our rotation. Working on myself, mainly. The GG has been eating out pretty much throughout. One of the problems is that I actually like to cook at home but I do miss some of our old favorite restaurants. One thing I am noticing is much abbreviated menus. I do not think this is an entirely bad thing. Some of those old multi-page menus took a lot of stamina to get through. I do miss the shrimp/rice side dish thingy the Griz used to make. But they ended that well before covid. Maybe I could recreate it? If I could remember all the ingredients? Parmesan was involved.
Have not been back to Knight’s yet but soon. After dinner, we dropped Pengo off at Lizard Breath’s house where she can do some laundry before heading over to her (and my) old college town tomorrow for a wedding. Things have changed a lot over there since she went to school there and CERTAINLY since I went to school there a generation earlier. America’s Cup and Lizard’s Underground are long gone, Dooley’s is now Harper’s, Coral Gables focuses on food instead of rowdy partying, and the city has sprouted a skyline. Unfortunately the skyline has obliterated an old favorite surface parking lot of mine. A common theme these days. They’re not just paving paradise these days, they’re taking over the airspace.
Anyway I am taaared and babbling.
