Old Hickory Steakhouse

Dear Food Diary,

This weekend I stayed at the Gaylord Convention Center and Resort at the National Harbor and ate at the Old Hickory Steakhouse located right in the convention center.  Long story short, I tried Beef Tartare for the first time.  It was raw beef served over toasted brioche and topped with a quail egg.  It was definitely worth trying.  Especially if you're adventurous or have a tendency to order your steaks rare.  You'll love this dish.  The meat is soft and chewy and much more flavorful than you would expect of raw meat.  The quail egg tasted like.... well egg.  But it was little and gosh darn it, that's cute.  If you eat here, I recommend you try the wedge salad.  It was a beautifully prepared half a head of baby iceburg lettuce stuffed with Nueske's apple wood bacon, chopped egg, and a housemade Maytag blue cheese dressing.  I've never had a salad arranged that way.  As you know presentation is so very important.  I finished my meal with a bowl of french onion soup which I found out is very hearty due to the tons Gruyere melted in it.  The meal was very satisfying.  And to add to things, I even had a waiter named Happy.  If that doesn't just put a smile on your face, I don't know what will.  It was a great experience.  No surprise at about 60 dollars per person.  So if you're ever in the National Harbor and you want to eat some place extremely fancy, make reservations at Old Hickory.  I recommend pairing your beef tartare with a nice glass of cabernet sauvignon.  Not only does it go nicely with beef but Happy recommended a delicious one for 12 dollars a glass.  Remember to dress nicely, the small print on the menu even asks that you leave your cell phones with the hostess.  As you can see by the picture of me below taken with my cellphone, the girl who ate Fredericksburg doesn't follow the "rules."
 

Thanks for reading my food blog.  This is the girl who ate Fredericksburg, cellphoning where it ain't allowed.  Don't judge me.     

Stalking Danny McBride Part 3

Dear Food Diary,

Once again I went out on the town with Danny McBride.  I think he's really starting to warm up to me.  And this time we went fancy.  Bistro Bethem on William Street has to be the finest dining experience of my life.  Their menu changes daily, so you may not be able to have the same thing as me, but what I had was delicious.  For my appetizer I had the Delmarva Clams in a seafood-garlic-chili broth with anchovy toast.  It was great, it was a buckets worth and I ate the whole thing all by myself.  I felt like the walrus in Alice Wonderland.  So many lost clam lives.  Of course I didn't pretend to be their friend first.  They knew what this was.  For my entree, to continue with seafood, I had the Rainbow Trout stuffed with lump crab meat, breakfast radish, bloody sorrel and panko stuffing.  It was intriguingly tasty and it was the first time I ever had fish with the head and tail still attached.  I tried to get my boyfriend to dare me to eat the eyeball.  He wouldn't.  So I didn't.  For desert I tried Creme Brulee for the first time.  If you've never had that it's a custard topped with a layer of hard caramel and it's fantastic.  The whole meal had me feeling like it should be some special occasion for me to be out at such a fancy place. But no special occasion.  It was just a Wednesday.  It honestly makes me glad I haven't had kids yet.  If you're a parent you can't have Creme Brulee on a Wednesday.  I'm pretty sure it's in one of the books.  Look it up.

Well Thanks for reading my food diary.  This is the girl who ate Fredericksburg, living like you wish you could.

Food Fight Fredericksburg

Dear Food Diary,

I was fortunate enough to attend a unique event this past Friday.  I'm speaking about Food Fight Fredericksburg.  Five area designers and restaurants paired up to compete and each create a one-of-a-kind space along with a small plate and signature drink that encompasses a theme involving the adornment of women.  Now the event was called Food Fight, however I personally felt that the amount of alcohol offered far out weighed the amount of food.  By the end of the night, I was still kind of hungry and a little drunk.  I would have called the night something different, something that included the word cocktails.  Cullinaries and Cocktails?  I don't know.

I would say the night was an interesting experience and I'm glad I went.  Especially, since it was for a good cause, the Fredericksburg Area Museum and Cultural Center.  But I will say this, if you plan to attend this event in the future, make sure you don't mind being on your feet.  My feet were killing me by the end of the evening.  I'm convinced the main reason The Orion won was because they actually gave the participants chairs to sit in, not that their food wasn't exquisite. 


Of course they had some other great restaurants there.  If you've ever tried Kybecca, Bistro Bethem, Foodie, or Castiglia's in downtown Frederickburg, you know they are worth walking around for.  And I even got to try a couple foods that I've never tried before.  I tried Quail for the first time and I got to try some fresh raw muscles.  That's right I ate a slimy raw invertebrate and I liked it.  Anyway thanks for reading my Food Blog.  This is the girl who ate Fredericksburg saying don't judge me.

The Hobbit Menu at Denny's

What up Belog?,

So you guys already know my sister, the girl who ate Fredericksburg.  Now get ready to fasten your napkins and your culinary fantasies satisfied with a guest appearance by me, the brother who ate Fredericksburg.

Today I woke up hungry.  I said hungry.  Now if you have a sister like my mine, you know that she's the one to call if you're hungry.  And she told me all I needed to know.  "Middle Earth has returned to America's diner and this time it's bringing the dragon."  So I hot tailed it over to Denny's to check out their hobbit menu.  But then I found myself faced with another dilemma.  What should I order?  Should I get Bilbo's Breakfast Feast, Smaug's Fire Burger, the Dwarves' Turkey and Dressing Dinner, or maybe I should just build my own Hobbit Slam with Honey Cake French Toast or Sweet Potato Pecan Pancakes.  What's a brother to do?  In the end I just decided to order it all and let the rings of power fall where they may.  Again, I was hungry.  It was all wonderful but by far the most delectable was the warm red velvet pancake puppies.  And the sweet icing dip was awesome, even on my sausage.  Oh Yeeeeaaaah!
In the end, my only complaint was that the pictures in the menu showed powered sugar on a lot of the dishes.  But maybe they were out, because when it came to my table, no powdered sugar.

Well that's all I got for ya.  I'm the brother who ate Fredericksburg and I want to know.... Where the hell's my powdered sugar yo?

Castiglia's

Dear Food Diary,

Today I had the most rewarding pizza experience ever.  It blew drive thru pizza place right out of the water.  I'm talking Castiglia's on William Street.  This place was awesome.  I have to admit this is the first time I got to watch a chef slapping the dough to make my pizza.  There's seats right in front of the chef so you can stare at him the entire time he works.  I do recommend that you refrain from drooling.  Apparently if you yell out "Oh yeah slap it baby!" they'll make you move to a table.  Just Kidding.  No I'm not, they will. 

Anyway after preparing all the food they cook it in a brick oven.  According to something I read on their bathroom wall, they're the best brick oven restaurant in the state of Virginia.  I tried the Bruschetta Castiglia, which could best be described as subtle.  I followed that with an Arugula Salad made with peppercorn pecorino romano cheese, extra virgin olive oil and a truffle mist.  It was exactly how I hoped it would be, uncomplicated, earthy, deliciousness.  

Eating Castiglia's Cheesy Steak and Cheese Calzone

The Brick Oven Pizza was quite simply the most gourmet of pizzas I've ever tried.  For only $11, I was served a pizza covered with pomodoro, fresh imported buffalo mozzarella, buffalo and meatballs.  That's right, I tried buffalo today for the first time, no bull, buffalo.  And those green leaves you see on the pizza, are whole basil leaves, an absolutely delightful, flavor filled addition that I will miss the next time I get pizza anywhere else. 

That's right, I like my basil whole ya'll.  I'm the girl who ate Frederiskburg. Don't judge me, that's just how I dine.   

Stalking Danny McBride Part 2

Dear Food Diary,

So I continued stalking Danny McBride this weekend.  This time my stalking brought me to some place fancy, a wine bar called Kybecca.  I went there and had the house sparkling.  It was French, I think that means it was good.  Yeah I don't know much about wine.   But I will say if you want to feel extra fancy I recommend ordering their Artisanal Cheese Tray (a selection of cheeses) and the Charcuteries Tray (which is a selection of meats.) I also recommend the Lobster Spring Rolls which were the best spring rolls I've ever had.  Whatever you're looking for, you're sure to find something interesting.  Among their daily specials there was even spam and alligator among the ingredients.  If you are looking for a place to impress a date, Kybecca is definately the place to go.  I for one not only enjoyed myself, but I also found amusement from the thought that Danny McBride has actually frequented this restaurant.  I couldn't help but picture his character Kenny Powers from East Bound and Down taking his wife to dinner there. Oh, and I ended up with leftovers.  I enjoyed eating my leftover cheeses.  Though the blue cheese was a little strong for me.  But tasted great when I mixed it with some beef flavored Top Ramen noodles.  Top Ramen should make a steak and blue cheese flavored variety.

Anyway, thanks for reading my food diary.  This is the girl who ate Fredericksburg saying don't judge me.

Stalking Danny McBride - Part 1

WTF?!

Dear Food Diary,
I went on an adventure today.  I decided to start stalking Danny McBride.  It wasn't my fault.  I didn't come up with the idea on my own.  My boyfriend suggested it.  See Danny McBride is from Fredericksburg.  And my boyfriend came across a list of Danny McBride's favorite places to eat in his home town.  So my plan is to eat at all of them, one by one.  The next time you come to back home Danny, no matter where you eat, you'll feel my presence.  Oh you want to have some thai food from your favorite Fredericksburg Thai restaurant, the Bangkok Cafe?  Did you feel something when you walked in?  Know what that feeling is?  It's my presence.  Oh yes, it's there.

My presence is waiting for you Danny

And now for the food portion of our program.  I tried a few things from the Bangkok Cafe.  I tried their Wonton Soup, their Fresh Rolls, their Crispy Tofu Tod, and their Duck Wontons for appetizers.  It was all good but let me take a minute to describe the duck wontons properly to you.  If a serving of regular wontons had it's unborn baby genetically modified to be a super soldier in a Chinese food army, I believe this is what it would taste like.  To put it more simply they are exactly like regular won tons, only better.  For the entree I had the Bangkok Cafe Chicken, which was half a chicken specially marinated in Thai herb and garlic, served with sweet chili sauce.  It was delicious.  It was like they took the best roast chicken dish and the best roast duck dish and those had a baby that was roast perfection.

Basically there was a lot of baby having going on during my meal and it was scrumptious.


Once again, thanks for the reading my food diary.  This the girl who ate Fredericksburg saying, don't judge me.

Joe's Crab Shack

Dear Food Diary,

Today my boyfriend gave me crabs.  And not just me, my brothers too.  That's right we went to Joe's Crab Shack in Central Park.  The atmosphere was great.  There are fish hanging from the ceiling and funny signs hanging on the walls.  The food is pricey (what seafood restaurant isn't?) but delicious.  For our appetizers we had the stuffed clam shells and the sampler which came with crispy calamari, great balls of fire (Joe's version of jalapeno poppers,) and a crab dip with chips.  For an entree my boyfriend tried the classic steampot, which included crab legs, shrimp, smoked sausage, corn and potatoes for 23.49.  He let me try all of it.  Even the potatoes were good.





For my entree, I had the moonshine punch and a shark bite.  If you order a moonshine you get to keep the mason jar it comes in.  By the time I left the signs were even funnier and I had even bought a t-shirt that says "Got Crabs?"

Anyway, thanks for reading my food diary.  Once again this is the girl who ate Fredericksburg saying, don't judge me.   

The Cold War is Over

Attention All Girl Who Ate Fredericksburg Readers:

I Got My Sugar Cone!

Cold Stone sent me an e-mail with a five dollar e-gift card and then by signing up to the My Cold Stone Club I got a buy one get one free coupon.  So that's right, 10 dollars worth of ice cream for free.  The best part is a representative of the company told me that I could have my sugar cone as long as they put it on top my Cheese Cake Fantasy.  That's cheese cake flavored ice cream mixed on a cold stone with graham cracker crust crumbs, blue berries, and strawberries.  It makes me want more just typing about it.  Some people would say I'm silly for going to war over a sugar cone.  Maybe those people would say I was crazy when I told my boyfriend that I wasn't leaving Cold Stone today without my sugar cone and he might have to bail me out of jail.  Those people might be right, but those people would have missed out on a very tasty treat.

Once again this is girl who ate Fredericksburg saying, don't judge me.

Food Superstitions

In honor of Halloween the girl who ate Fredericksburg has compiled a list of Food Superstitions

1. If you're eating noodles you should never cut them.  Long noodles represent long life and cutting them means you are cutting life short.  So manners aside go ahead and slurp those noodles up.

2. When you have tea, only one person should do the pouring.  If a second person shares the task it's bad luck.

3. If you want someone to fall in love with you, forget jewelry.  Give them an orange.

4. Never hand spicy food directly to someone because it will bring discord into your relationship.  Instead place it on the table in front of them so they can pick it up.

5. If you're making a cake for Christmas, make sure everyone has a turn mixing the batter otherwise it's bad luck.  This is especially important for the single people in the family, if they don't take part they will remain unattached for another whole year.

6.  If you borrow a dish you should never return it empty.  Any good cooks out there want to borrow some of my dishes?

7.  We all know that it's bad luck to spill salt accidentally.  The remedy being to throw it over left shoulder to hit the devil in the eye.  But did you know that if you want to get rid of an unwanted visitor all you have to do is sprinkle salt behind them?  And I bet they'll leave even quicker if they see you following them around doing it. 

8.  A Russian superstition says that if you someone finishes your unfinished food they will be able to know your thoughts.  Maybe that's why I make my family share bites of their food with me.  "Come on, I just want to know what you're thinking."  "I'm thinking you better keep you're hands off my food."

9.  I partly knew this one... breaking the wishbone... If you cook a turkey, two people can make a wish and break the wishbone.  Whoever gets the biggest piece gets their wish.  But here's the part I never knew.  You have to use only your pinkies to break it.

 And finally, someone try this and tell me if it works..

10.  If an unmarried woman combs her hair on Halloween night while looking in the mirror and eating an apple... she will see the reflection of her future husband over her left shoulder.

Happy Halloween everyone... Once again this is the girl who ate Fredericksburg.  Thanks for reading my list of superstitions.  But remember, I didn't come up with these.  So don't judge me.

Arby's

Dear Food Diary,

Tonight I had to go to Arby's.  I joined the League of Brisket on Arby's website and in order to earn enough points to get the Arby's League of Brisket baseball cap I had to do a bunch of tasks.  I had to follow Arby's on twitter and like them on facebook.  Then I had to get an instagram account so I could send them a picture of an Arby's sign, a picture of an Arby's receipt, and a picture of me eating their new Brisket sandwich.  Now honestly I was married and I don't think my husband even did that much to win my hand in marriage.  And I had decided to do it all for a baseball cap just so I could help promote Arby's new sandwich.

So long story short, I tried the Brisket sandwich.  When I got it, it looked like a squashed baby version of the sandwich in the picture.  I was very disappointed until I tasted it.  And, well you can see from the picture I quickly changed my mind about the sandwich.  It was a delicious combination of ingredients.  The slow smoked beef brisket, the smoked Gouda cheese, the crispy onions, all very yummy.  I'm really glad I tried it.  Now I only have one issue.  After all that I did, the website didn't give me all my points.  And not only that, but I added it up and even if they did give me all my points I still won't have enough to get my hat.  So now I'm going to ask all of you for a favor.  All of my followers, all ten of you.  If you agree with me that I deserve an Arby's hat write on Arby's twitter page, write on their facebook page.  Heck tell everyone you know.  Tell people on the street, that the girl who ate Fredericksburg deserves an Arby's League of Brisket Hat.

Thanks for your support and thanks for reading my food diary.  Once again this is the girl who ate Fredericksburg saying "don't judge me."

Red Lobster

Dear Food Diary,

I went to crabfest at Red Lobster.  One doesn't go to Red Lobster unless they're there to get their butter on.  So, I tried the Snow Crab and Crab Butter Shrimp.  And then, cause salad don't go with butter ya'll, I had the lady bring me a cup of the Crab and Corn Chowder instead.  But, I also tried the Lobster Bisque.  Personally, after trying them both, I thought the Lobster Bisque was better.  It was just really flavorful and salty but in a yummy way.  I also tried the Wood-Grilled Peppercorn Sirloin and Shrimp which was good and just as expected, which is another way of saying not quite adventurous enough for my taste.  When you get an entree you have a choice of side dishes.  I chose the Creamy Langostino Lobster Mashed Potatoes for a four dollar up charge.  I have to say it was no where near worth it.  It was average mashed potatoes with a little seafood on top.  Since I was bombarded with so many yummy flavors, those potatoes really fell short.  If you plan on going to Red Lobster soon I recommend you try the Lobster Crab and Seafood stuffed mushrooms though.  They currently have a coupon on the Red Lobster website that gives you this cheesy yummy deliciousness for free as long as you order two entrees.  Lastly I recommend you try the Berry Mango Daiquiri.  I swear to the Top Ramen, you will think you've gone on vacation.  Overall my visit to Red Lobster was exactly what I was expecting, great service and a wonderful meal.  I wasn't sure at first about ordering the snow crabs because I honestly don't have much experience cracking open crabs.  But by the end of my meal I was eating them like a champ.  I put down the little metal cracker thingy and just started tearing the legs open with my teeth. That's right.  Like Champ ya'll.

Anyway thanks for reading my food diary.  Once again, this is the girl who ate Fredericksburg saying "don't judge me."

 

Cold Stone

Dear Food Diary,

Today Cold Stone declared war on the girl who ate Fredericksburg.  What happened?  I'll tell you what happened.  I made a simple request.  I asked for their Oreo Creme Filling ice cream mixed with Oreo cookie crumbs on a sugar cone.   I noticed as the girl was preparing it she put it on a large waffle cone.  Waffle cones aren't sweet.  So I said, "excuse me is that a sugar cone?"  She said it was not, because sugar cones are only for children.  Can you believe that?  I said "but that waffle cone isn't sweet, is it?"  She said it wasn't.  So since it wasn't what I wanted, and it would cost extra, I asked her to just give it to me in a cup.  So I got my ice cream in a cup, not a sugar cone.  Because again that's only for children.  But as I ate my delicious ice cream I couldn't completely enjoy it.  Even when my boyfriend gave me a taste of his S'more Camp Fire Classic, which was also delicious, it didn't make me feel any better.  I still want my sugar cone.    I didn't want this war.  This is like Pearl Harbor, if Cold Stone was the Japanese and lack of sugar cones was death.  I was dragged into this battle but I shall not be content until I get my sugar cone.  It this blog undignified?  Perhaps, but dignity goes out the window where sugar cones are involved.  But Cold Stone if you're reading my blog I am perfectly willing to bury the hatchet if you just give me sugar cone.

Thanks for reading my food diary.  Once again this is the girl who ate Fredericksburg saying don't judge me.  Give me my sugar cone.   

Buffalo Wild Wings

I was pretty scared before the challenge.

Here I am, having signed the consent form.

Dear Food Diary,

I did the Buffalo Wild Wing challenge today.  Twelve of their hottest wings in 6 minutes.  And you aren't allowed to drink anything or even wipe your mouth with a napkin.  I trained for a week by eating as much spicy food as I could get my hands on.  The day of the challenge I felt as prepared as i could be.  I didn't even brush teeth this morning in the hopes that a little morning mouth funk would protect my mouth.  Don't judge me, I had a challenge to win.  When I finally arrived I have to admit that I was a lot scared.  They even make you sign a waiver.  In case injury or even death.  They made it clear that if you vomited you would be disqualified.  I have to admit that during the course of the competition that became a real possibility.  But the worst part of the competition wasn't the spiciness.  It was the temperature of the wings.  All the food BWWs serves is piping hot.  Normally that's a good thing.  Unless you have to woof the food down in 6 minutes.  More than once I had to spit the piping hot chewed up wings back into my hand, blow on it, and stick it back in my mouth.  Yeah it was a pretty revolting picture.  It came down to the wire and I almost didn't finish in time.  But in the end the lady conducting the competition said those words I was waiting to hear "Ok, I'll give it to you."  Now if I had to watch that whole scene unfold as a nonparticipant, I would have totally been grossed out.  However, one of the customers who had to see the spectacle came and patted me on back and said "Good Job."  All in all, I wouldn't wish this competition on my worst enemy but it was certainly an experience.

So anyway, thanks for reading my food blog.  Once again this is the girl who ate Fredericksburg saying don't judge me.  Unless of course I'm in a Buffalo Wild Wings Competition and there's a t-shirt to be won, in that case, judge away.

Clearwater Grill

Dear Food Diary,

Tonight I went to a bar in Locust Grove.  Let me rephrase that.  I went to "the" bar in Locust Grove.  There isn't a whole lot in Locust Grove.  But anyway I had a great time.  The atmosphere was fun.  They played Cupid Shuffle.  I danced.  Oh yes. I danced.  I danced like I've never danced before.  Seriously I'm sure it looked like I've never danced before in my whole life.  And it wasn't just because of the Bloody Marys I was drinking.  I know you're probably wondering why a 33 year old woman is ordering an old man drink.  You see, I'm in training.  I'm going to do the Buffalo Wild Wing challenge so I've been trying to eat lots of spicy food the last couple days to build up my tolerance.  But that's for my next blog.  Anyway I didn't order any food at Clear Water.  It was almost 11 o'clock so I assumed their kitchen was closed.  I did however find some fried calamari on one of the tables.  Some guy at the bar told me they were at least two hours old.  But I thought they tasted fine.  If you happen to be in Locust Grove on a Friday night, as I was, I recommend you stop at Clearwater.  You might even make a new friend or two.  There was guy at the bar with a shirt that said "P*ssy, the most expensive thing you'll ever eat" and even he had some girls flirting with him.

Anyway, thanks for reading my food diary.  This is the girl who ate Fredericksburg saying don't judge me.

Burger King

Dear Diary,

Today I blind folded my boyfriend.  I made him try the new Satisfries from Burger King.  At the same time I made him try regular Burger King fries as well as McDonald's fries.  The results were that, aside from the different shape of the Satisfries, he couldn't tell the difference.  And me?  Well I actually preferred the Satisfries to the regular shoe string variety.  And according to Burger King they're 40% less fat and 30% less calories than... wait for it... McDonald's fries.  Apparently even regular Burger King fries are lower in calories and fat than McDonalds's.    So after 10 years of research Burger King has finally given America what they want.  An excuse to visit both Burger King and McDonald's in one day.  By the way, aside from three orders of fries I also tried the Angry Whopper.  It was spicy, greasy awesomeness.  Seriously I want another one, right now.

Anyway, thanks for reading my food diary.  Once again I'm the girl who ate Fredericksburg saying, don't judge me.  

Noodles and Company

Dear Food Diary,

Today I went to Noodles and Company in Central Park.  I tried the Truffle Mac with Marinated Steak, the Wisconsin Mac and Cheese, the Japanese Pan Noodles with Chicken, the Pad Thai with Shrimp, the Pot Stickers, and the Lettuce Wraps.  Don't judge me, there were left overs.   They also had wine available, but I couldn't drink anything because I had to leave to go to my day job.  Feel free click on one of the ads on my page several thousand time so that I can quite my day job.  Just kidding.  No I'm not.  Anyway, the Pad Thai was not as flavorful as expected.  Sort of a less adventurous form of Thai food.  That having been said, if you want to try to Thai food but are scared to, this would be a good place to start.  The Pot Stickers were three dollars for only three Pot Stickers.  What's up with that?  And lettuce wraps weren't what I was expecting.  They just gave you a plate of lettuce and a bowl of toppings.  You have to have to put them together yourself.  Again, what's up with that?  I should have just ordered a salad.  The best thing I tried was the Truffle Mac.  I recommend that you go there and try it.  But I should note that there was one thing missing in my Truffle Mac, truffles.  There are no truffles in Truffle Mac, just mushrooms.  What's the difference between a mushroom and a truffle?  So glad you asked.  Truffles grow underground and mushrooms grow above ground.  Oh and truffles are more expensive.  So this dish that costs only $7.95 includes no truffles.  How do they get away with calling it Truffle Mac, it contains white truffle oil.  If you ask me that still makes it a lie.  There you have it.  My lunch was lie.  And it was delicious.

Once again, thanks for reading my food diary.  This is the girl that ate Fredericksburg, saying "don't judge me."

Doc's Pizza Drive-Thru

Dear Food Diary,

I bought pizza today in my pajamas.  It was like a dream.  I drove up to the pizza joint and they slid a large pizza right into my car window.  Well a pizza, a fountain drink, a two liter of soda, an order of hot wings, a salad, an order of bread-sticks... basically one of everything on the menu.  Actually when I first drove up to the window I wasn't sure they were open.  I had to be beep the horn to get someone's attention.  But a moment later a friendly flour covered food server came to take my order.  I had the option to buy the pizza by the slice but i opted to buy their only sized whole pizza, a 14 inch eight cut.  I was hungry, ok?  Don't judge me.  So the next time you're feeling hungry but don't want to get dressed try Doc's Pizza on Courthouse Road.  Trust me when I say the generous amount of cheese will make sitting down alone to a 14 inch pizza seem less sad.  While you're at it you can try their wings that weren't the crispy kind, they were the slimy kind, but you know the good kind of slimy.  The kind of slimy that makes you dip your breadstick in it's grease.

Anyway, thanks for reading my food diary.  Once again, this is the girl who ate fredericksburg saying, don't judge me.
