jrwren | good afternoon | 18:45 |
rick_h_ | party | 19:22 |
rick_h_ | jrwren: need help finding a good anniversary dinner place in downtown AA this next weekend | 21:52 |
rick_h_ | jrwren: any suggestions for great food/wine? | 21:52 |
brousch | WhyAA? | 22:37 |
brousch | My vote: http://www.muer.com/gandy-dancer/ | 22:39 |
rick_h_ | brousch: wife and I have a baby sitter and it's close, nice, some walkable downtown, etc | 22:40 |
brousch | That one is outside of downtown | 22:41 |
cmaloney | Phew | 23:32 |
jrwren | rick_h_: I'd get the tasting at Logan | 23:41 |
jrwren | rick_h_: or, just go to the chophouse, you can't really go wrong there. | 23:41 |
rick_h_ | jrwren: wine tasking? | 23:41 |
jrwren | rick_h_: for something lighter, Mani or Insalita are both awesome. | 23:41 |
rick_h_ | tasting? | 23:41 |
jrwren | rick_h_: no, its the chef's tasting menu | 23:42 |
rick_h_ | ah, gotcha | 23:42 |
jrwren | The sommelier at chophouse is great. | 23:42 |
jrwren | but I also think wine is bullshit :) | 23:42 |
rick_h_ | lol | 23:43 |
rick_h_ | k, will look into those | 23:43 |
jrwren | if you are looking for very fine and fancy then gandy dancer or chophouse are the AA togo places. | 23:43 |
jrwren | I've never been to gandy. | 23:43 |
jrwren | chophouse i've been to many times, it does not disappoint. | 23:43 |
rick_h_ | just nice/good for 8yr anniv | 23:43 |
rick_h_ | cool | 23:44 |
greg-g | what about the grange? | 23:45 |
jrwren | just nice/good? I'd totally skip that fancy stuff and hit up insalita or mani | 23:46 |
jrwren | I've heard good things about grange. | 23:46 |
greg-g | I liked it | 23:46 |
rick_h_ | location is important to make an evening of it | 23:46 |
greg-g | rick_h_: grange is downtown | 23:46 |
rick_h_ | something in downtown, walkable to other stuff. Maybe some coffee, etc | 23:46 |
jrwren | this is all downtown. | 23:46 |
greg-g | ah | 23:46 |
rick_h_ | k | 23:46 |
jrwren | insalita is "mexican street food", but its oh so oh so oh so good. | 23:47 |
greg-g | :) | 23:47 |
jrwren | zomg, I'm getting hungry and i just ate dinner. | 23:47 |
rick_h_ | but brousch hooked us up so well for GR that we figured we should ask people for stuff at locations they live out at more often :) | 23:47 |
rick_h_ | greg-g: will be hit up soon! | 23:47 |
jrwren | The ceviche tacos were amazing, as was the lobster enchelada | 23:47 |
rick_h_ | greg-g: we found a wine train that will take the little guy. We're debating hard | 23:48 |
rick_h_ | jrwren: oh, that's nice. I've not had any good mexican in a while | 23:48 |
jrwren | this is nothing like any mexican i'd ever had. | 23:48 |
jrwren | its fancy panced up mexican. | 23:48 |
jrwren | its all small plates, so order like 4-6 plates and drinks. | 23:49 |
greg-g | rick_h_: oh man | 23:49 |
brousch | Did you enjoy the butterflies? We haven't gone yet this year | 23:49 |
rick_h_ | hah, might be worth a try | 23:49 |
greg-g | wine train | 23:49 |
cmaloney | That's called Tapas | 23:49 |
jrwren | and its... oh man... | 23:49 |
brousch | jrwren: tapas? | 23:49 |
jrwren | cmaloney: in Spain! | 23:49 |
rick_h_ | brousch: yea, great time. The boy loved it. Saw the horse, boy was upset he couldn't ride it | 23:49 |
jrwren | cmaloney is dead on right. Its a tapas place. | 23:49 |
brousch | Ah good. I wasn't sure if it was all open due to snow | 23:49 |
cmaloney | In Mexico, similar dishes are called "botanas." | 23:49 |
cmaloney | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapas | 23:50 |
rick_h_ | greg-g: yea it's funny. My wife is like "I'd not pay $100 for him to ride the wine train" and I asked her if she'd pay $150 for each of us? | 23:50 |
rick_h_ | "well sure" | 23:50 |
rick_h_ | so we're set then :) | 23:50 |
greg-g | hah | 23:50 |
rick_h_ | I love my wife sometimes. All the tricks to get her to agree to things hehe | 23:50 |
rick_h_ | brousch: but yea great day. So tired when we got home. | 23:51 |
rick_h_ | Hit up this little deli on market street by the museum for lunch. All worked out great | 23:51 |
rick_h_ | parking sucked though, the thing filled 4 cars in front of us and we had to go back across the bridge and paid $15 for a 4hr session :/ | 23:52 |
jrwren | what is that tapas place in GR? that place was good too. | 23:53 |
cmaloney | GRapas | 23:53 |
jrwren | I remember the scalops in particular being very good | 23:53 |
brousch | yuck | 23:53 |
brousch | jrwren: San Chez Bistro | 23:53 |
jrwren | yes. GOOD | 23:53 |
jrwren | you don't likes? | 23:53 |
brousch | One of the regular meeting places is on the 3rd floor above it | 23:53 |
brousch | I like San Chez. I was yucking rick_h_ 's parking woes | 23:54 |
jrwren | ah! | 23:54 |
brousch | I was kind of disappointed in the exhibit. It's attracting much bigger crowds than it deserves. But with the donos there I guess it makes sense | 23:55 |
brousch | dinos | 23:55 |
rick_h_ | brousch: yea, I thought the same. It was kind of meh | 23:55 |
rick_h_ | but the kids loved it enough that you just go for them | 23:55 |
rick_h_ | and gaves the parents talking time | 23:55 |
rick_h_ | figured it must be so busy becuse with the cold/snow they're not taking their kids to parks much or anything | 23:55 |
brousch | Did you go to the dino exhibit? | 23:57 |
brousch | Those are impressive, but they have been making the rounds for a while now | 23:57 |
rick_h_ | yea, we did the dinos, the carosel, got tickets to do the planetarium but missed the time | 23:57 |
brousch | Heh, that always happens with the planetarium | 23:58 |
