So, other than trying not to die on the road, yesterday was pretty fun. Went thrift-store shopping with Bruce. Found a kick-ass pair of boots (good spottin', Bruce!). Picked up lots of books, and had fun trying on dresses that I'll never wear.

Stopped for dinner at Top of India on the way home. Pretty disappointing, really. the food was acceptable, but I can get better than acceptable food at home. Eating out should be really damn good food, or stuff that's too hard/time consuming to bother making it at home. Wish Cedars was closer, we could go get really good Indian. Service was cheerful and the one girl was lech-worthy though. So was her friend who came in to pick her up.

Kick ass boots

Also, today Bruce made me chocolate covered mangoes. Delicious!

Yeah, Top of India isn't anything to write home about. Taste of India is pretty tasty, but the service sucks. I just about walked out when I didn't see a server to pay them for an hour after we'd finished eating. Yarg.

Ok, just had a 2+2 moment thanks to the equation (Ironic I suppose!) - I just figured out who you are (Poly group, our fav coffee place) I just didn't expect to see you in this journal too. Lol. Small world!

Yup, that's me :-)

It was so much easier when I had the same handle everywhere. Then Yahoo! killed my Gulgothica account and I had to make a new one a few years ago.

Don't you hate that?
I had a similar prob though I've tried to keep some form of Kresentia in everything for some consistency.

Of course, I've made it worse recently by switching to TheOfficeTroll for new accounts instead of Gulgothica...

Oh well, even dense people like me eventually catch on!

The good thing about being dense is that you have more gravity *rimshot*

I suppose so... Lol!

I like the place out in the valley. I think that may have been Taste of India? only been there once. This was the one on Division, and we basically went to the first open restaurant we found, since it was already after 9... probably won't be going back.

Top of India is out in the Valley on Sprague. Taste of India is on N. Division :-)

Alrighty then :) Top had much better food than Taste.

Ultra icon love. Is it gankable? I've been looking for just the right icon to use when I post to [livejournal.com profile] bipolypagangeek.

Yeah, feel free. I don't have any idea at this point who created it, unfortunately, but you're welcome to it :-D

Done. Thanks!

Hate to be the bearer or bad news but Cedars was sold to someone else (keeping the menu for a while but who knows quality - I particularly care about Indian food and I could find things I liked there) but the orig owners will be opening a new place, different name soon. I'll keep you posted if you'd like.
And lovely boots, sorry I missed out on the fun...

let me know if you find out where the new place is, please?

Also; now don't you wish you'd gone boot shopping with us? :P

I wished I could do it that night but I just wasn't up for it.
I will keep you updated on the Ceders folk. (My friends who loved the old place said they went to the new one and not as good.)

the new place = old site/new owners, or old owners/new site?

Date: 2009-01-27 01:26 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] kresentia.livejournal.com
I meant the friends went to the orig location with the new owners and it wasn't as good. Sorry, tired.
