Restaurant Fail

Sometimes you go to a restaurant and you get this:

Raw chicken is pretty much unacceptable but this was pretty ridiculous.  At the very least the manager apologized, refired my order and comped the meal so it wasn't a total loss.

Failed First Friday

Tried to go to First Friday but due to a later day at work and communication issues it didn't happen.

Instead Noche, Franklin Mortgage, Luigis and galavanting and night time photography occurred:









Taco Dinner Party

We don't always eat out.  Sometimes we do cook and when we do it usually turns out surprisingly well.  Taco Dinner party for Labor Day weekend follows:

Lobster, Shrimp, Calimari, and assorted seafood tacos and items were made from scratch and it was quite delicious.












Prospect Park Labor Day BBQ

A little scenic tour of Prospect Park where we also had a BBQ.

I had the opportunity to play a little tennis at the Prospect Park Tennis Courts.  There are 9 clay courts and 2 hardcourts.  As such we got a little time on the clay courts which was a little different and quite fun.  Its been a long long while since I've played on clay as its not that popular in the states so it was a nice experience.

First stop on my Brooklyn Labor Day visit was to the Dram Shop for burgers and libation.
Fun place with a decent beer selection and your standard bar menu.  The deep fried mac and cheese was a nice little treat and was pretty decent
