*edit* - We’re going to go Brazilian, but we’re not going to do all you can eat - simply crazy on costs. This place looks good, we’ll give it a go!
Anyhow, same rules as always - come one come all but just let me know you’re coming!
This weekend has been about two things.
1. Seeing Patrick Stewart in Macbeth.
2. Getting obscene amounts of sleep.

Cooking dinner for the parents now. The usual “Dad went to market and bought meat” meal - steak, mushrooms and onions sauteed, salad, whatever else happens to be fresh. Trying a different marinade for the mushrooms, a little bit of salt, pepper, hot sesame oil, olive oil, etc. Test toasts over the fire seem to imply it will be quite tasty.
Amanda is leaving town, so a special edition of Mid-Week Eats is in order!

This Fish and Chips platter (sans traditional chips, but the fries were still tasty!) in Atlantic City hit the spot on Sunday.
Makes me hungry again. Mmmmm, deep.. fried.. fish… *OM NOM NOM NOM NOM*
This is in reference to the event listed below…
Say, What Chu Looking At? » Omgosh go Nosh : Mid-Week Eats
Omgosh go Nosh will be May 1st at 7PM. Bring your Rolaids, because we’ll be trying some Cajun!
Ping me if you’re coming!
Alrighty.
Its not the best system out there. However, for an office desk, its pretty damned nifty.
Fill out a survey, convince them that you’ll promote the product, and get a full kit for $15 in shipping. Its definitely legit — looks like its a joint marketing venture between Phillips and Sara Lee. I paypaled my payment, and had the unit in about 7 days. Have used it all day today.
The Good : Its pretty slick looking, generates coffee pretty damned fast, and fits in the corner of my cubicle quite easily. Also doubles as a hot water maker. Dirt cheap. Easy cleanup with the pod system - and drinkable coffee. Cheaper than paying 1.75 per cup in the building’s snack area. The water/coffee is PIPING HOT.
The Bad : Its idea of a cup of coffee is 4oz. That’s a SIP to me. The basic pods will barely generate 8oz before turning into water - and stir your coffee before sipping or you’ll get something that tastes like dirty water. Its also still a kitchen appliance - using in the office might some funny looks. It also sounds like you’ve got a vibrator — put some tape on the metal rack to dampen the vibrations.
The expected : Of course they expect you to use their pods - how else do they make their money? There are refillable pods and also third party filter replacements. Water tank is tiny - holds only about 7 cups (28 oz) of water before pinging empty. Takes up, if you think about it, similar space to an average coffee maker - larger than a hotel coffee maker. No heating element to keep your coffee warm - you’re SUPPOSED to drink it right away folks.
Anyhow - if you’re willing to sign up to pimp their stuff, $15 is a heck of a deal.
No more shall Thursday be relegated to the wayside of culinary experience! No more shall we stand by and eat leftovers from Lunch! NO MORE I SAY!
Where? .. uh.. that’s a reallllly good question. I’ll know in a few days.
May 1st, 2008 - 7:00pm to 10:00pm - Location TBD.
Ping me if you want to come!
