FOOD NETWORK

First of all, when I woke up Wednesday morning there was a Tornado Warning for Newport Beach.



By the time I realized that the weather police were not joking, the threat had apparently passed. Anytime they interrupt The Price is Right I know that they must mean business.

Anyway, then I drove down to Matt's in San Diego. It was Restaurant Week this week - so which 5-star dining establishment did we decide to visit?


A little Italian place called "Domino's". (We actually didn't discover that it was Restaurant Week until Thursday)

As you guys may have heard, Domino's decided to switch things up and start serving real pizza for the first time in 50 years. The new recipe is good - I thought it tasted much better than their old stuff. Matt liked it too but he also can't remember there being anything wrong with the old Domino's pizza. I'm not sure if that's more to blame on a taste bud deficiency or memory problem on his part.


Anyway, Thursday we had a meeting at Iron Horse Jeans and then grabbed dinner at Hash House a go go.



Matt: Mashed Potato Cheddar Burger and Fries


Me: Sage Fried Chicken and Bacon Mashed Potatoes

My brother recommended it. Good food, nice atmosphere, lots of sort of weird/different menu choices, huge portions - 0484 approved.
