To Whom Are You Drinking Right Now?
Al Dente replied to starfish's topic in Beer, Wine, and Cocktails
Leon Redbone I always loved his style. If you're not familiar with him (he died yesterday), and you like jazz with an often comic twist, check him out. -
I enjoyed the food, but it was a 10 on the obnoxious scale.

What a welcome story in this world of obscene income inequality. It's not just a gift to those students, it's a gift to our country. This is what a patriot looks like-- not some gun-toting, my-country-right-or-wrong, bible-thumping, close-minded, flag-waving, Lee-Greenwood-listening, American-exceptionalist, nationalist jackass.

I dined here Saturday night with my daughter. Ordering was a confusing process. I asked about the dry hot pot, because of the raves above and was told the closest thing was lamb with cumin and got a warning about how spicy it was. I had something in the past from Joe's Noodle House with the same description and enjoyed the heat, so I ordered it. There was a lot of cumin, but no other heat. It tasted fine, maybe a little fatty, but I was disappointed by the lack of spiciness. I also ordered the spinach in chicken soup and they tried to talk me out of it because of the "black egg". After telling them I was familiar with century eggs, and insisting I wanted it, they allowed me to order it. This dish was enjoyable with the spinach just cooked enough in a rich yolk-colored broth. My daughter's lo mein was good enough that my daughter ate the vegetables in it. I feel like I experienced some culinary discrimination (I'm not Asian), but the meal was enjoyable and the price was right. I was intrigued by a lot of items on the menu and would like to go back, but next time I'll go with a larger group so we can order more dishes.

At around 9 pm, I'm expecting an angry call from my ex-wife asking why our daughter can't get to sleep. You have some idea where I'm going with this. My 9 year-old and I dropped by Starbucks for a refreshing beverage after a salty 5 Guys burger. Looking through the cooler, she spots a Starbucks Strawberry Lemonade Refresher. Being the diligent father I am, I read the can looking for any possible caffeine. Nope, product looks clean, right? It's a sparkling juice blend. Or maybe it's lemonade! Could be a flavored juice blend drink, I suppose. Anyway, it's made with coconut water and real fruit juice! I turn the can to make doubly sure! Ok, now it's a sparkling strawberry lemonade. I'm confused, but still no caffeine. I triple check! Look at that whopping 25% fruit juice. That's good, right? "Ok sweetie, drink up!" I get home and just as I'm about to throw it in the recycling bin... WTF Starbucks?
