Modern Technology
We had an errand to run Friday evening, and we thought we’d eat dinner while we were out. Lilia’s favorite food is usually burritos, but she said she wanted Mac and Cheese instead. I tried to think of some nice family restaurants or diners, but I was drawing a blank. I turned to Joe’s BlackBerry and used the Yelp application. It knows where you are, and lists nearby restaurants. At first, I was just browsing the restaurants and didn’t come up with anything we were interested in… but then I figured out that I could search for Mac and Cheese. First thing that came up was a brewpub that we would like to check out sometime, but decided Friday night with Lilia probably wasn’t a good idea. It had good reviews for beer selection, but so-so food and service reviews. Next selection was a Caribbean restaurant with good mac and cheese… but one review left the impression that the place was closed. Third choice was a more upscale restaurant with lobster mac and cheese. Lilia hasn’t had shellfish, and fancy wasn’t what we were looking for, so I kept looking…
and there it was.
The ideal place for Friday night Mac and Cheese:
We had dinner, shopped a little, and then we all got frozen yogurt cones before they closed the store and booted us out.
And here is a lovely BlackBerry photo taken by Joe. Three cheers for modern technology.
