Lunch Report - 8/8/07

* HOME *

leftover pizza
leftover chinese
club soda

Ok - it's horrible, I know, but it had been a long morning & I still hadn't gone to work. Because of all the weather stuff, the entire subway system was screwed up. I couldn't take the train in, but that turned into a lucky thing because Tom had to go the airport and he couldn't get a confirmation from his car service. I ended up driving him and it took FOREVER. By the time I got back, the trains were running, so I just grabbed this stuff from the fridge before heading into the city. (Getting stuck on the train is bad - but getting stuck on the train hungry is much, much worse.)

* DIRECT GROUP NORTH AMERICA COMPANY PICNIC *
(Bookspan offices, Garden City, Long Island)

cheeseburger
hotdog
pasta salad
shrimp salad
chocolate covered rice-krispy treats
water
wine

Yay! The whole office got on buses and trekked out to Garden City for a company picnic. It was the first company wide function since BMG Columbia House acquired Bookspan. They had lots of activities, and a raffle for prizes. But it was really hot, so I mostly just stayed in the shade and talked to people (although I did win the one game of foosball I played!)

* SKYLIGHT DINER *
(34th St & 9th Ave)

chili

Whenever I try chili at a place for the first time I get a little excited in hoping that it might be the best ever. This was a disappointment. Oh well.

A build your own burrito station!! Why didn't I try this before? Today I had spicy chicken, black beans, mushrooms, spinach, some pico, a little guacamole, a little cheese and some salsa in a whole-wheat tortilla. Muy delicioso!

* 5TH AVE STREET FAIR *
(5th Ave btwn 12th Street and Sterling)

chicken empanada (from coco roco)
bbq ribs (from blue ribbon)
pulled pork sandwich (from bisquit bbq)

It was a beautiful day and the street fair was packed!

Tom and I started at 12th street and walked the length of the fair, checking out the food options along the way. We were hoping for cheap lobster rolls from Brooklyn Fish Camp, but they didn't have them this year. I stuck with my plan to only eat food from local restaurants & everything was great.

* DIZZY'S *
(9th St & 8th Ave)

huevos rancheros
coffee

It was turning into a beautiful day, so we sat outside and enjoyed people watching along with our food. Even though I already had breakfast, this was technically brunch for everyone else, so I had the huevos rancheros. They were good & since my breakfast was really more appropriate for lunch anyway it all balanced out quite nicely.
