Garangelo's on Hertel

· · 🌡️ 57°F

Garangelo's at 1197 Hertel between Delaware and Colvin is pretty tasty. I had the very best Italian Sausage sandwich I have had in years there.

However, I did not like drinking tap water out of plastic cups, not being given complementary bread and then being charged when we asked for it, or their calamari appetizer. The appetizer was made with the weakest excuse for calamari. They were so tiny and had no meat to them and this is coming from someone who has written 24 journals about Calamari. I didn't even bother taking a pic of it.

The italian wedding soon was really good.

The stuffed artichoke looked delicious but I was too full to eat one. I tried to bring @enknot and @jon there for lunch today but they are not open for Lunch anymore. That kind of sucks because honestly, I thought it was more lunch quality ambiance.

When we realized it was closed we tried Kabob house on Hertel and it was closed, then Romeo and Juliet's and it was closed too. Hertel might be cheaper than Elmwood but it was virtually dead at lunchtime unlike Elmwood and A-town which are both hopping at lunch.

We ended up going to @enknot's house and @megan cooked us some fine home cooked spaghetti for lunch.

    I wish Hertel were walking distance, though. So many wonderful restaurants to check out.

    I think monday is a common day for restaurants to be closed. I'd give it another shot.

    Thumbs up on building design. BIG thumbs down for casinos. But, that's too broad a topic for a comment.

    I got frost on my windows this winter. :)
