Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.

A New Place?

I get carry out menus stuck into my door every couple of weeks. I always know the places that are leaving menus, so it’s not ever notable. But yesterday, I got a menu from a place I didn’t recognize. It had all kinds of tasty looking things on the menu. Its address was down Harford Road in the area of Safeway. A lot of revitalization has been taking place down there, so I thought this must be a new little restaurant down there.

I ordered a half pound of steamed shrimp with Old Bay. Mmm… steamed shrimp with Old Bay… When I got to the place, it didn’t look very new. And instead of looking restaurant-y, it looked kind of bar-y. And the shrimp wasn’t very good. It was over cooked, so it was kind of tough and it tasted like shrimp shells instead of tasting like meat.

Disappointment.

For now I’ll just stick with my two beloveds: Zorba’s and Big Bad Wolf. They have plenty of tasty treats for me.

I had to pick around the onions.  They tasted like shrimp shells too.

    Boooo. When I first started reading, I was horribly jealous. Now I’m sad.

    Are those ‘tomatoes’?

    I’m still horribly jealous. Lauren doesn’t let us eat out of Styrofoam anymore.

      Why is that? Is it because you tend to stick your fork or knife through the bottom and make a mess?
