It's not a menu item (the restaurant doesn't even have a website) ... I only found out about it recently while browsing through Yelp photos. It looks like it's one of those things the waiter suggests if you're hemming and hawing about which pasta dish to order. It looks like you pick either angel hair or linguine, and then three sauces.
The menus posted online by diners say that the restaurant has clam sauce (which I've had before and it was great), anchovies, mushrooms, marinara, oil and garlic, and ricotta blush sauce.
And we're going to see Jim Gaffigan afterward. Please pray that I don't laugh so hard that I throw up my delicious dinner.
That sounds awesome!
I LOVE Jim Gaffigan. I was just thinking about his Subway bit this morning and found myself laughing outloud while walking down the street alone.
I will say, though, it's a PITA to get a reservation. MH called for it a couple months ago - it's so tough to even get them on the phone. Then there was a minor panic last week when he called to confirm and they were all, "Uh, no reservation listed here, I guess we can TRY to get you on the wait list." I thought MH's head would explode (we're going with friends so it screws up everyone's plan). Turns out they thought we were talking about that coming Saturday, not tomorrow, so then all was well.
Flameful: Sometimes I read people's texts on the bus/subway. I know I should respect other's privacy but it's so hard when the phone is HUGE and I have an hour commute and I'm bored. OK, really there's no excuse.
BUT, I have seen some seriously crazy stuff! Sexts at 7 AM. Men looking at porn! Fights!

this reminded me of my disappointment when one of my neighbors ended her call upon the two of us entering the elevator. we had walked together through the building entrance and towards the elevator shaft when I heard what sounded like the most dramatic phone call ever. her parents are pressing charges against him but she sounded relieved by whatever he was saying. I wanted to eavesdrop more! and I'm too embarrassed to schedule benign MD appts at my cubicle w/ people around.
I realized last night that my absolute least favorite broadcaster will be calling a college football game I want to watch this weekend. @rennido, Jesse Palmer! Fucking Jesse Palmer and his size smedium (small/medium) suits. Ugh he is so grating on my ears!
On a related note, the spread is 14.5. Who do I take?
Hunting season ruins all fun in Sept/Oct and I'm not going to Montana in November!
But they play @ Autzen on 2019! Come to me!
THAT'S FOUR YEARS AWAY! Did I mention that we also have hunting here...and H's farm land is a treasure trove of pheasant. Like meeting your quota in like 30 minutes.
Pheasant, eh? Any deer and elk? H lost his spot due to a forest fire.
I'm stupidly excited about the pasta flight/sampler offered by the restaurant I'm going to tomorrow.
Where are you going? And can you just review and post pics when you get back. That sounds delicious.
ETA: Should have kept reading. Still want a review when you are done.
Yuuummmm
I got chicken parm, MH got a veal and eggplant dish, our friends got veal parm and salmon, and we got two pasta flights (clam sauce, ricotta blush, bolognese).
And chocolate pistachio ricotta cheesecake, limoncello ricotta cheesecake, and coconut pecan ricotta cheesecake.
*burp*
And my friend and I split a bottle of wine so I'm buzzed.
It's weird to go straight to striking, monsterz. Generally here you will see a work-to-rule period like you described, and striking happens after many failed negotiations.
I wish DH would have an excuse to work-to-rule. It would be awesome if he only worked 8:30 - 3:30.
Yeah their contract expires at the end of the month and they have been negotiating since May. If they don't have a tentative agreement by the 3rd they will strike which means a delay to the start of school.
Please tell me you live in the Midwest and not in Ontario.

I know it's not still Friday but I need somewhere to put this. I really really want to punch one of my coworkers right now and I can't promise I won't throw him under the bus with the chief executives soon. I just spent over 4 hours of my Sunday trying to fix programming that he supposedly updated this spring, but ::gasp:: didn't! I don't know how big the problem is, how many returns were filed incorrectly because of this, etc. I'm just flat out pissed right now. I promised the President of the company I'd have these reports moved along and ready for another senior exec to review when they got in Monday morning. So I did the work to keep a promise, but still 80+% of our staff wouldn't being to know how to fix this stuff, if they even knew it was wrong and this was supposed to be done 10 months ago.

I am sorry for your situation. It might become a reality here. The elementary teachers I think, still don't have a contract. So far work to rule but if the first day of school changes - fire out of my ears. I took the week off so I can drop her off and pick her up.
