That stuff your wife ordered looks awesome. Whenever I have Thai, I get the safe Pad Thai.

You can never go wrong with that dish!

Thanks for the pics, GS. I must admit to being as picky as your son, and these picks make my throat get tight. All those veggies. Yeow. Scary.

Steph and I go out a few times a month and we're always open to new flavors. We went to a Cuban/Caribbean place called Papi's. I had been there before with a couple of friends. The food is pretty cheap and they give you a good amount.

We both had the Palomillo Steak which is sirloin cut very thin, nicely seasoned with onions on top. It came with a side of salad, rice, beans, some bread and fried plantains. Nothing really out of the ordinary but it was very good. We both enjoyed it. The last time I went there I ordered the Masitas de Puerco. It's big cubes of pork marinated in spices and pan fried. I usually don't mind heavily seasoned food but this was almost too salty.

We frequent sushi bars/restaurants with friends pretty often and love going to Ru San's. There's quite a few sushi places around us. I'd love to try some authentic Indian food but there really isn't a whole lot of ethnic restaurants near us (we live about 45min NW of Atlanta) sans sushi/hibachi places.

Had a nice read of people's experiences so far. Surprised to see that Eturnal didn't have a good experience at Ruth's Chris. The one near us in Atlanta is pretty damn good. Maybe the chef was high.

Wait until you see some of the upcoming challenges, if goothads continues.

Green curry is the best thing you can get in a Thai place, signed everyone who likes spicy food.

That chicken you ordered for your kid looks delicious though.

This. There's a restaurant I found downtown that's just great.

Went out for indian last week with the guys, nothing to adventurous for me but for 2 of my friends it was their first time with indian, where do we post the pics?

Was a little difficult finding a non-Japanese restaurant with a cuisine I've never tried before.

So at the end I settled for something I didn't eat very often.

Thai food's Tom Yum Guong (Spelling?)

They made it a little spicy here but my friend liked it too so it was all good

Cuban staples, nothing like the way my mom makes them, though

If the pork was TOO salty, shame on them, but cuban food done well is usually heavily seasoned with deliciousness. Nothing worse than bland tasting cuban.

Overall, glad you liked it, wish it was an even better experience though.

I haven't had time to go to the Brazilian place (and it requires reservations, oddly enough), so instead of me going some place I've never been, I took CJ to a place I normally wouldn't, and haven't, and probably shouldn't have.

Karen wanted to go to Red Lobster for her birthday, and I had CJ, so I took him for seafood. He'd never had crab legs, so he and I ordered crab legs, and I taught him how to eat them...or sort of how to do it.

CJ decided every piece needed to be shattered with the nutcrackers, and a lot of crab debris went everywhere. He dumped his melted butter all over the table...twice. It was a lot of fun.

He ate more rice and garlic-cheddar biscuits than seafood, but Karen had a nice dinner (with a show), and our waitress was also named Karen, and that was funny, too. I also had to buy four meals, because CJ decided that crab legs were "dumb" and I got him some salmon because that's what Karen had and he thought that was good because it didn't taste like normal fish. I didn't mind, because then I had more crab to eat.

Your Pal,
Jubber

CJ is smart.

Today, walking home from the store, I passed by that same house again. Some young children running in circles got in my way and I stopped. I did what I typically do when I run into young children, which is smile, because I believe it's important for their moral and social development because how children see themselves and how they see the world around them is inextricably linked; a positive world leads to a positive self.

Anyway, I started walking again, and then someone said, "Hey"! I looked. "Oh, you, you're that guy in the car," I said. He was wearing those big sunglasses cops (or people who wish they were) like to wear. "Yeah, hey." He offered me his hand and I shook it. It was kind of limp. "Have a nice day!" "You too." I kept walking.

That, to me, was the payoff for how I deal with others. I believe that in the long term, it is important to build relationships with others based on mutual respect, and fundamental to earning others respect is having personal gravity.

Wish I remember the camera when I went to Rovers this past weekend

Was my first time eating oysters and foie gras, as well as the longest meal I've ever eaten. Period.
