Social
Becuz some wks are all about junk food, let’s do a restaurant instead: Social, a mid-priced mid-atmosphered mid-calibered place serving New American food. Prob the most interesting thing izzat it’s in Univ Park, across from SMU, in the Hotel Lumen, an ex-Ramada remodeled into a semi-boutique hotel. Breakfast is brought-in pastries & there's no lunch; but at dinner, they have a chef, Jon Schwarzenberger, formerly of the Crescent Club, who does steak, seafood, salmon and so on, tho the talker is mac&cheez, made w/ brie + gruyere
6101 Hillcrest Ave, Univ Park 214-219-2400

Amen, Twisted Link.
Speaking for myself, I think there's as much interest in restaurants as there is in junk food. But it's easier to make comments about junk food. Even better when it has peanuts.
You might get more comments sif you posted a picture of lipstick. Love your blog, T.G.!
I just had a free range shrimp po'boy and creole tomato salad, after driving thru St. Bernard Parish, Chalmette and Lakeview, here in the Big Easy. First time back since the storm to visit my wife's family and partake in my 9th www.nowfe.com.
Outside of the Quarter, the "sliver by the river" area, and Metairie, this city looks like the aftermath of a nuclear holocaust movie. Ungodly devastating and sad, sad, sad... TV pics do not do it justice.
"Rejoice, rebuild, rebirth" is the new motto here, 'cause I guess that "the city that care forgot" applies all too well now.
To paraphrase a punchline from an old New Yorker cartoon:
"Raising free-range shrimp is easy. It's the shrimp-drive to Amarillo that's the tough part."
This was aa lovely blog post
