Food, wine, cigars, day at the spa, concerts, any and all of life's little luxuries! Post 'em if you got 'em!
Friday: Dinner at "Little Mexican Cafe" Saturday: Suprise 60th b-day for my partner, dinner at 100 South Steak & Chop house -Had the pork chop, it was an absolute monster of a chop enough to feed three people. Sunday: Viewed exhibit at Chicago Photography Center
Aeropressed - HomeRoasted Ethiopian Yrgacheffe coffee this morning with a Cuban Ramon Allones Special Seleccion (Robusto size)..... Oh yeah. I was all alone so I got to enjoy it inside ! ::
For dinner, I picked up an excellent hand-carved pastrami sandwich from Tommy's Joynt, and am now enjoying a bit of Bulleit bourbon with ice and an H. Upmann robusto. I'm really settling into the single life...
Tommys is a great place to stop. When I lived in San Francisco I went there all the time. Great food and lots of beer choices. Last night I enjoyed a REO robusto. If you like the Rocky Patel Vintage 1990 and 1992 then you should like this cigar.
Last night I had a wonderful Rocky Patel Old World Reserve Churchill. My last one from the first batch Rocky personally brought with him to Austin when I met him last fall. Hopefully the new release ones are just as good. This is the only RP cigar I've really enjoyed, haven't been a big fan of the Vintages and the Edge doesn't do anything for me at all.
If I ever become an alcoholic, let it be known that I will choose French wine, Japanese umeshu or POLISH Żubrówka. I raise my glass to John III Sobieski, Maria Curie-Skłodowska, Frédéric Chopin and Henryk Mikołaj Górecki.
Tried a recipe for Pizza lasagna tonight, still waiting for it to set after coming out of the oven. Will try it shortly but it looks REALLY good.
Tonight's fare...chicken breast with broccoli, red bell peppers and olive oil over linguine...oh yeah and GARLIC!!!! :drool
I was treated to a lovely birthday dinner; prime rib (med rare), baked potato, and dinner salad at a great local restaurant. All wonderful! Dessert; Dark chocolate! Thanks so much Bobby!
Hmmm...I'm not a big veggie fan, but my daughter would LOVE it! If I could just come up with an alternative to the broccoli....
