The Dining and Food Thread

We are celebrating Dad's birthday today at Rei do Gado.

 

I was relieved when he chose a place that I also really enjoy.

Small risk for the OP to just try the service.

I don't know what a boglehead is. Maybe that person needs advice on what socks to wear before making a decision as well

I use DoorDash when I'm doing some heavy duty coding and do not want to 'get out of the zone' (anyone who writes code will understand that phrase and its meaning.

I don't like "getting out of the zone" when I am watching my TV shows. Especially heavy duty watching. Or maybe I don't understand because I don't write code, heavy duty code, or "get in the zone" often enough.

Banana bread is in the oven. Mom's recipe, except I triple the walnuts.

Two steaks. I think they were beef loin or top loin. I bought a package of 5 or 6 when on special from Costco, then vacuum sealed each steak with my Food Saver and froze them last fall. Earlier this week I took two from the freezer and put them in the fridge for thawing in anticipation of getting my new backyard nirvana - a new Weber Genesis II grill. I also bought the iGrill3 thermometer for the grill, which saves me the step of slicing the steak open and inserting a temperature probe. Now I can just watch the temperature of the meat on the app.

 

I was going to make the baked potatoes on the grill also. DW gets the potatoes ready and put them in the microwave. I said "wait a minute I was going to do those on the grill!" ... "What? why would you do potatoes on the grill when the microwave is right here?"

Wait - "Polish grocery store" and "Charlotte, NC" just don't go together. "Polish grocery store" goes with cities like "South Bend", "Calumet City", "Whiting", or "Hegewisch".

 

The only meats they know in Charlotte is chopped up brisket with that vinegar and water they call BBQ sauce.

Anyways the polish shop is ran by two polish ladies. Some stuff they make in house. Majority of it come from suppliers in the northeast and Midwest. A bunch of different can goods brought in from the old country and other parts of Europe.

 

It's nice having access to something other than shyt from Johnsonville, Hillshire, Oscar Myer, etc.

I can get a case of Vienna Beef dogs from a local distributor cheaper. The other stuff, I would definitely have to mail order.

That's why I don't eat there much....feel like I need to do a BT or something after paying. Locations around me are decent though.

Agreed. A fast food burger and fries has a maximum enjoyment factor for me.

 

No matter what, it's only a couple of steps beyond a frozen pizza at home.
