Last night for dinner I went to The Hamilton in Washington D.C. and had chili, and wings with Mumbo Sauce (a big D.C. thing apparently) plus a Caesar Salad and rosemary Parmesan potatoes. It was an absolutely excellent meal, especially as I had Goose Island Honkers Ale to wash it down ^
Boring morning thus far: granola bar, bagel and coffee. But I'm going to Fogo de Chao for dinner tonight so all will be well ^^

Each week they enclose a complimentery 7.95 voucher to be used by a new customer so if there is anyone in the UK that wants to give them a try PM me and I'll send a number - or my next one - but please only ask for the voucher number if you are going to use it straight away so as not to deprive anyone else. I currently have two I can offer .....

A dry and gently aromatic blend of local grapes from the Gascony area region of the south of France. This wine is designed as an easy going blend, and is equally well suited to glugging at parties, or to drinking with simple fish dishes. A very refreshing wine that’s astonishingly good value. Exclusive to Waitrose.

Ate an outstanding chicken and vegetable curry dish, stir fried style yesterday. Perfect with jasmine tea (cha).
Curry is an antioxidant and is touted to reduce to chances of cancer. When it tastes this good, I can't complain.

Went to lunch with my Dad today at our usual spot in Durham, a shrimp shack called Fishmonger's. I had fish n' chips. Then leftover fettuccine Alfredo and chicken for dinner. Lots o' protein for me!

I finally pulled the trigger and bought a Traeger pellet grill last week. I made this Santa Maria style tri-tip day before yesterday, and finished up the leftovers tonight.
Why, oh why didn't I do this sooner... Check out the smoke ring, and it's still medium rare.^^

Breakfast: Cinnamon Roll French Toast at Another Broken Egg Cafe (with a side of bacon, of course). It was really good and so rich it didn't need syrup.
Dinner: Chicken kabobs with rice and veggies
