A week ago, some woman from an advertisement firm invited me to a Media luncheon at the Temple (a restaurant in a former Masonic Temple downtown), to which I realized people do read my restaurant review Blog. Me and Kary just came home from it, and it was AWESOME. :love: Free valet parking, free drinks (we had 6 different ones) and a tasting menu of free food made me want more. I thought I'd just brag, since it gets boring around here with people bitching about bad things. This was an awesome thing. Me and Kary each got a free cookbook (don't know what I'll do with it, but hey they were free!) and a media packet. Also, we sat with some interesting folks who were waaaayyyyyyyyy more knowledgable about food than I and Kary were, yet we were the last table to leave the dinning room.
Also, it's a restaurant in an old Masonic Temple. How fucking cool is that?

Maybe the answer for why you were last is right there. hah.

That is pretty fucking bad ass.
-
What kind of food do they serve?
-
Occultic.
-
All they do is put Law Offices in old Masonic Temple. Although there was one in old Church. Had to ask if they served "Rack of Lamb of God."
-
What kind of food do they serve?
Mediterranean, basically Spanish, Italian, Greek, and Middle Eastern. Shit was tasty, and the free booze (alot of it, since we had to taste and give our opinions on their drinks) make the evening even better.
-
You have a restaurant review blog?
-
Indeed I do.
-
OHHH!! Did they have falafel? I would love to have falafel in a masonic temple.
-
Indeed I do.
Well? Link that shit, homes.

No, they had loads of other stuff, though.

The restaurant opens on March 15, a bad day if you're Julius Caesar but a good a day if you want to try something new.
Aha, brilliant. ;D
-
The place reviewed today was epic, because free food and wine! I bought beer since I felt guilty. Apparently it was only open to the Owner's friends and family, but the guy welcomed us in. All the other patrons were looking at us oddly, since everyone else were in their 40s and 50s. Still, delicious food after a day beach side.
-
Were you invited again or did you just happen upon it?
-
We happened upon it. The former place was named the Drunken Clam, like in Family Guy. After driving down that sparse beach-area road, that was the only restaurant around. It had a bunch of cars and we were hungry, so we stopped in. I was expecting to spend 30-40 for us considering, but then we were told by the owner, "Oh no, everything but beer and hard drinks are free". Steak, Shrimp, Oysters, Clams, etc., all for free and we walked into it. A happy accident, consdering I suggested we eat at some other place that wouldn't have been as good nor as free.
-
Man, you lucky little bitch! Free fucking steak!
-
And seafood! Bacon-wrapped scallops! Jesus made that recipe.
-
I ate the calamari. I NEVER eat calamari. :3 I love adventures.
-

And whyyy did they change the name? that was the best marketing ever!
-
From what I've seen, it was named that before Family Guy. Chances are Seth McFarlane ripped it off.
-
Wife? WIFE? Did I miss the memo of you getting married?
And I apparently missed the memo of you moving from Florida to Rhode Island, although I'm sure you've mentioned it before and I just forgot.
-
Meh, I didn't know either. I was all "whhhhhaaaat? you moved?" and he was all "yeah, duh".
-
We're common-law married? Fiancee is harder to write, plus there's an accent somewhere and wife is just easier.
-
Awww everybody is getting married now! who's next?
-
Merla and IDE.
-
Gwynn and Beck? Nah, that's not legal. Or requited.
Or is it?
-
Either way, I will chell ALL video evidence of such a union to verify its authenticity.
-
You better invite me Derrick.
-
You missed a comma, and for that you cannot come. You'll have to buy the DVD or download it off of a torrent site.
-
NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
-
I'm joking. Not even I am sick enough to with-hold sweet lesbian action.
-
YYYYEEESSSSSS!!!!!!!
-
Now, Nuri, Gwynn... LET'S GET IT ON!
-
Sorry dudes, I don't think Beck is gonna consent. I'm with you though, except for the whole voyeuristic fapfest part.
-
But that was the BEST PART!

Ha, I knew you were just being lazy. If Rama can master the accent, so can you.

Didn't you just add in a comma? Shouldn't that cancel out Fiero's lack of comma?
-
Now, Nuri, Gwynn... LET'S GET IT ON!
Did you just include yourself? Is this three-way calling?
-
I am still watching.
-
Conference calling?
-
Also: What the fuck? no Falafel? LAME
-
Ha, I knew you were just being lazy. If Rama can master the accent, so can you.
Still can't roll my Rs though.
-
A ruffles commercial taught me how to. I spent hours imitating it, and then I excelled at Spanish.
-
I prefer hearing germans rolling their rr's. Its sexier <3

I remember that commercial.
-
Merla and IDE.
Hey! Leave me out of this. ^w^
-
^w^
Wait, are you happy or what? :lol:
Merla can't roll her r's either.
-
VAMPIRE! KILL IT WITH... silver? Fire? Wood? What really kills bloodsuckers?
-
Venereal disease.
-
Hep D?
-
Haha. D.
-
As a D, I find that offensive.
-
That was my point.
-
WELL FUCK YOU!
:tom:
-
:lmao:
-
Gwynn and Beck? Nah, that's not legal. Or requited.

Throwing hints out?
I can't roll my Rrrrrr's either. :'(
-
Practice makes perfect. That goes for Becks and Gwynn as well. :tom:
-
I can roll my r's. What do I get?
-
A plaque with the engraved words, "Wow, that is really something! You are quite an amazing person. You will do well in life, you will!"
-
Spanish "R" is much kinder than Gaelic "R", which is somewhere between a hiss and a purr. If cats ever master human speech, they'll be speaking Gaelic.
-
I find this idea humorous.

If cats master speech, I'm the first to go.

My brother's outside cat lives in the garage and hollers 'BAAAARN!" whenever he's taken to the vet. I interpret that as a clear cry to be put back. And don't forget the YouTube felines who say "Oh, long johnson" and "Hello!" amongst other things.
-
Kary's cat says 'noooooooo', keep in mind this is when I strip naked to bring him in the shower with me. He should be so lucky.

Once I saw a video on the news of one of those cats, I almost shat bricks. The apocalypse is near.
-
My mom used to try to get our dog to say my brother's name. It was pretty obnoxious. I think Raz thought so to; because she would just stare or she would start stomping about as if she wanted to play.
-
:lmao: why on earth did she want the dog to say your brother's name??
-
It was his dog before my mom left it with them when they had a kid.
-
Poor dog, sent around like a package. Same happened to my uncle's dog that later became my dog after they had a baby. I loved that little fucker :'-(
-
My mother really wanted to keep her, though. She is an awesome dog, and very sweet. When my brother lived at home, and had the dog there, my mom was actually very upset that he moved out (well, about the dog, not about him). She was pretty happy when they asked to bring her back.
-
This makes me want to get a dog now :-( I want a brussels griffon :3
-
I want a mastiff. Or a corgi.
-
A corgi? Are you going to name him Ein too?
That dog is getting veery popular, I'm seeing them everywhere! Just like pugs
-
Oh! OR A PUG!
-
I want a mastiff. Or a corgi.
From one extreme to the other?
-
'tis ok. I'm the same way. One day I want a brussels griffon, the next day I want a wolf/dog hybrid. They are AWESOME
-
Little dogs are cute but I tend to like bigger ones. Not huge dogs but bigger than what would qualify as medium. Something you can throw a frisbee at and not manage to injure.
-
You are underestimating the powet of miniature dogs. I had a yorkshire terrier that was built like a tank and had the bite powet of a megalodon.
-
You could just get a smaller frisbee. My dogs aren't big, but could catch a frisbee. They won't cause they are too lazy. Won't even play fetch with a ball. Just look at me like "Why did you throw that over there, now you'll just have to go get it."
