July Weekend of Friday 13

Had another tamed weekend, just hanging out with my cousin. So just this past weekend I tried to keep it not he down low since next week we'll be doing a road trip to Kansas City for Worlds of Fun.

Fried CalamariThis Friday 7/13 I had dinner with my cousin and we went to 801 Chophouse. Typically we really wouldn't be spending that much on dinner but there was a Groupon deal for $40.00 we're given $80.00 to spend so just double our spending. We started out with fried calamari which included zucchini and squash. The dipping sauce that was included was so great, I don't really know how to describe it but believe me if you decide to go there ask for extra sauce. For dinner I went with a 16 oz Ribeye (medium rare) and my cousin got her favorite Prime Rib. For the sides we got Boursin Mashed Potatoes and Baked Creamed Spinach that's served out to share between both of us. I really love going to steakhouses that knows how to cook steak because when I asked for medium rare it was definitely medium rare and simply just melts in your mouth. It could be the USDA Prime Beef but I think I just ate the best steak I've ever had.

Saturday was pretty a chill day, despite the 100° weather we went to my favorite place for pho, "Pho K&K." I'm definitely eating well these past days because especially that day the pho was so on point. The broth was just right that I barely used any other fix-ins in it, just a little Sriracha and Hoisen Sauce. We all seem to enjoy our pho today here is a before and after pic below.


Sunday we had a late lunch/dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings and stopped by Pete Crivaro Park for some snow cones. So perfect for this hot weather we're having this summer. Later in the day we ended watching some movie on Netflix and to where I am today typing up this blog entry. Good night everybody, hope you had a great weekend and a great Monday.

My cousin, Rosie
