Every year since 2007 I have released a set of annual awards of my own picks for the best in media and in life. Late as always, here are the EARLE awards for 2011. Enjoy.
“They know about the fork.” – Jerry Seinfeld
I am trying to get this blog up and active again. So… gonna be tumbling a bit less and “pressing” a bit more.
Just got back from lunch at the New Chop Stix Cafe. I give it thumbs down. A Sushi roll was prohibitively expensive, They didn’t have sweet tea, and i ended up upsold into a weird tea/sweetened soy milk “signature” drink. The portions were not good for the money, especially compared to Shooting Star, which is a favorite of mine in the pan-asian cuisine arena.
The restaurant was overcrowded. Not in the sense that there were a ton of people, just too many tables and chairs in too tight of a spot. Also, the service was very subpar. The host was nice (he also got our drinks), but after that, it was difficult to get any help.
So… I’ll take a “fork” over “Chop Stix.”
“That’s right. I went there.” – Stewie Griffin
