    Dinner with Stephen with his new employer at La Mar along with Carly and Nick. Never been to this restaurant, but it’s in a decent location. It was during the week of RSA conference and there were at least two other vendor events going on in this same restaurant. We were in the private room

    This is one of our goto’s for a light refreshing and healthy lunch. We ordered mostly our usuals. For oysters, they were out of Standish Shore, so we ordered the Miyagi’s along with our usual Kusshi’s. Andrea had her usual Dungeness Crab on butter lettuce and I had my usual Spanish Toasts and my usual

    Andrea, Trisha, and I had a quick lunch here at Billingsgate after running some errands. I decided to try the clam chowder and the hamachi crudo which I haven’t had for awhile. We also had oysters, this time Miyagi and Kusshi. I forgot to take a picture of my Spanish toasts. Both Andrea and Trisha

    This is always a nice fresh, healthy-ish meal. Andrea ordered what she always gets, the Dungeness Crab with greens (other option was brioche). I also ordered what I always get, the Spanish toasts, but I also ordered the Wild Scallop Ceviche. Scallops came out first. They were decent, fresh and some nice acid from the

    We just wanted something quick and tasty for lunch and Billingsgate is always an easy option for us. We always seem to get the same thing because it is always so good. We get oysters – 6 Kusshi and since Standish Shores. Andrea gets the dungeness crab and I get both the Spanish toasts and

    We had done some shopping on Pg. de Gràcia and before we headed back to our AirBnB, I scouted out a some lunch options that were close by. We dropped into Batea without a reservation and fortunately there were only a few tables seated. Batea specializes in seafood, so that’s what we ordered. Trisha is

    Ale & Compass Restaurant

    Since I was in Orlando for the conference, I coincidentally had 2 coworkers who lived in Orlando and were willing to come out for lunch. I asked to eat somewhere within walking distance of the conference (it was at Disney properties) and Kevin (who I never previously met in person) picked this place in the

    This was our first meal together which I booked early evening the day we all arrived here in Vegas. The restaurant is located in a bougie shopping mall (we did see Lisa Vanderpump and her husband walking their perfectly groomed Pomeranian around the mall) adjacent to the Aria Hotel. We had an early seating right

    We were just grabbing a quick lunch. We ordered some fired clam strips to start. I had the lobster roll with my sides being slaw and french fries/onion rings combo. Lobster wasn’t dressed in any way and it was a fairly small lobster roll. It did come with a side of clarified butter which I

    Andrea hadn’t been interested in revisiting Angler so when Steven invited me for dinner, we decided to go since neither of us had been for awhile. The cocktails were very enjoyable. We mainly had them mezcal versions of other cocktails (e.g. penicillin, last word, negroni). There are some items off menu that you can ask
