Julia's leftovers with veggies
and chicken added from
home. |
The atmosphere was cozy and the food was delicious. Julia ordered the triple lo mein. She liked the noodles, but doctored it up a bit with soy sauce. She also wished there were more meat and veggies in the mix. Steven ordered the triple delight. Compared to Julia's portion, it seemed a bit small. And, after he gave Julia and I all of his broccoli and mushrooms, it was small. He swapped meals with Julia half-way through so she could enjoy his yummy brown sauce. Steven is the best sharer that I know, by far, and of course, the best dad. I ordered the grilled ginger salmon with asparagus. Maybe I was the only one that was super happy with my meal...it was so good. I certainly benefited from the Asian fusion, as advertised. The check came with little, very potent papaya candy.
We talked about Julia's friend's college list and a bit about our upcoming Carnegie trip that includes Chris (boyfriend). Steven thinks we should visit Ohio State; it is two hours from Pittsburgh. No firm decision yet. And, what about the looming government shutdown? We chatted a bit about how that may or may not affect Steven's company. Julia was quite tired after working all day for Capital Educators.
Recommendation: Get the grilled salmon!
