SO i have really been wanting to go to Jin Lan for dinner recently and randomly today my paretns decide to go there and ask if i wanna go. They didn't know i have been wanting to go and seruiosly it has been like 10 years isnce we have went. What an awesome coincidence! Anywho, it is like a sit down chinese restaurant in kenmore and i just really love it for some reason. I Really especially love the Poo Poo Platter that comes with the like Dinner for 3 combos. It has this teryaki beef that i love to daeth, and like 10 other things that are really good. Then we got beef with brocolli, chicken lo mein, pork with mixed vegetables and chicken fried rice and wonton soup. It was all really good. I just really like it and recommend it. Its not fancy or anything but something about it i like it better than other chinese restaurants.
Oh and my fortune was "People who are late are often happier than those who have to wait for them". I am alomst always lat4e for things and that is toally true. i never thought of it that way!

Steel Crazy by Bohemian HostessSo last night I went to the grand opening of Steel Crazy Cafe by Bohemian Hostess on the corner of Elmwood and Allen. It was a crepe cafe before but I guess it was a flop cuz the people who did the steel artwork really didn't know how to run a restaurant. So they looked for someone separate to run the restaurant and new chef and owner of the cafe part is none other than local celebrity Shayna from this season's Hell's Kitchen. The space is really cool cuz there are tables all throughout the store so like you eat in the store kinda, in a like off the wall kinda way. Like all the artwork is for sale but it is a restaurant. At the opening they had all kinds of tasty appetizers, particularly this like asparagus wrapped in steak that was seriously prolly one of the 5 best things I have ever eaten. She said it was really easy to make but seriuosly it was so FREAKIN GOOD!!! The lady with the tray actually purposefully started to avoid me I tihnk cuz I had taken way more than my fair share.
Anywho, for right now until AllenTown Art Festival the restaurant is open i believe like 11-5 and has brunch on Sunday's. After the craziness that will be Allentown they want to expand to have dinner a couple nights a week. If the food at the opening is any indication, it is gonna be really good.
They have sandwiches, paninis, salads, crepes and other stuff. They have like two vegan I believe even but I am not sure on that but like I think that is what I heard. Anywho, it is a short walk from Roswell and many other places so I recommend you stop by. Plus you get to see a hell's kitchen pseudo-celebrity. She seems really nice and I really hope it succeds.
In regards to full disclosure Shayna, is (e:libertad)'s friend but seriously I wouldn't have wrote about it if I didn't tihnk it would be good. We all know how i felt about the home tour and that was my brother.

Hakuna Mata-ta-taI love the Lion King. Me and my friend Brian used to watch it everyday after school on video. For some reason tonight I had a huge urge to listen to the soundtrack and dance and sing my heart out to my old tape soundtrack playing on ou rlike 40 year old tape player! The quality is not great but the songs are still amazing!!!!!!!! It is a great movie with a great soudntrack. I totally remember every word stioll. It just has such a range of music that is so fun to like just rock out to. I had a really spiritied edition of washing the dishes to the tune of Just can't wait to be King.

Who is Sarah Marshall? Why would you not want to forget her? (Admit it, you want to remember her forever, right? That is why you are giving her poster away!!)

Because what about the guilt of being late, huh?
Um Yeah, I don't agree with that cookie saying. :)
hey mike i got your text, thank you
jeremy is in the hospital but he is doing better now
sarah prob told you the details
i just wanted to say thanks!
that place freaks me out, its always so quiet, and the goldfish are freakishly large. i cant eat and look at fish, i prefer to eat with no fish around, unless they are fish on my plate and not looking like fish, not fish swimming in a tank.
their veggie tofu soup is my all time favorite!
