We got ours to go, and found it was three normal sized slices of pie - two yellow slices, with a green slice in the middle.

Followed up Flounders with a Bodacious Olive visit (Downtown), for an enjoyable coffee bar and of course, olive oil and vinegar sampling.

Continued our eating tour to the 5 pm "Bites and Flights" for wine pairings with appetizers at The District - Seville Steak and Seafood Restaurant. Nicely done. 3 wines and 3 appetizers. Beef carpaccio was good. Piano player gave us a nice medley of requests as well as piano bar 'classics'. Wish I'd requested the Charlie Brown Christmas music and "Rhapsody in Blue"...next time! Headed to George's Bistro on 9th Avenue after that for a light dinner. Service was slow, to the point of wanting to call in our order from the table, without the large crowd. Eventually, we were served, octopus was bland, but okay, again, beef carpaccio (son ordered twice in one day) was okay, but had no preference.

Heading out today to Tacos at taqueria el asador and The Swinery...we will see what happens...
