That's the one. My employer used to be Raychem. They got acquired by Tyco but I had already left and moved back east by then. They had a nice campus in Menlo Park. I think it was off University.

No fair. I have no access to Cuban food even though I live in Florida. I would kill for your leftovers.

Sure. As long as you don't live in South Florida. Let's meet in Havana instead.

Nope. Just Freedom Fries.

BamaVol lives in the panhandle. It's a short drive from Miami.

Yeah, I haven't been there either, given the attendant hassles until recently. I'd like to go before too many US tourists hit.

That's exactly what I said when I went there 20 years ago to get married.
Didn't think it would take another two decades before these arrived.

That place is on my weekly rotation. I think their pizza is a cut above the other Round Tables and the old school salad bar is consistently fresh.

Carryout from there today ^

The final slice of leftover pizza. I'm at my dad's house for the weekend and the only thing in the fridge is beer, condiments, and Diet Pepsi.
