Went to Whole Foods for dinner
Baked chicken with mustard glaze on the skin, mac and cheese, carrots and broccoli and a cup of coffee. Cost me $12 but quite good.

Whole Foods is now my "go-to" choice during work travel. Much healthier then sitting down for a heavy dinner every night.
A slice of pizza...some salad from the salad bar....maybe sometimes a sandwich. Many choices and all tasty.

Got bit tonight in Cairo on one of those meals that just sounds great- date salad with Gorgonzola, apples and olives, then grilled scallops and prawns with a tomato onion sauce. Everything was just plain awful and it was topped off with an obnoxiously bad Egyptian wine. I can still taste the seafood after brushing and mouthwash. Yuck

I ate so much ful on the street, and every time the vendor used the same (un-gloved) hand to make the sandwich, take money and smoke cigarettes.

You were a brave man eating scallops and prawns in Cairo.

As this trip was free ie free BA tickets and hotel on points upgraded to suite etc I took her to the Swisshouse in Vienna again today and bought her a lovely lunch of schniztel and assorted sausages ie a few Bratwurst, Weisse saussies and a couple of Franks ... as usual I forgot to take the picture until we'd almost finished ... but also caught a couple of pictures of the kitchen which hints a little about how much Stelze they sell ..... this place is wonderful. Then apple strudel, nut scnapps and a cigar for me ... followed by th tram back.

My first visit ever to Dan-D Donuts in Panama City, FL will be the first of many. I had a blueberry filled donut that must have weighed a pound. Took it to the downtown marina, sat on a bench and watched a loon diving, a cargo ship leaving port and the airplane hauling the Trojan banner over the Spring Break crowd on the other side of the bay.
