Pei Wei. It’s Pay Way, Not Pea We.

I’m impressed with their food.  This day we shared Sweet & Sour Shrimp and Asian Chopped Chicken Salad.  Both were excellent, like all dishes I’ve had there thus far.  Be careful, the red pieces in the sweet and sour dish are Ginger, not Red Bell Pepper.  They’re good, but can be spicy.  We get this tasty Salad every visit.

Please Don’t Ask Me What I’m Grilling.

May 26th, 2008 5 comments

My neighbor walked by when I was BBQing this.  I thought to myself… Please don’t ask me what I’m grilling. 

“Hi neighbor, it smells good, what are you grilling?” 

What would I say?  “UUmmmmm, a halved head of Romaine Lettuce.”  It just sounds so, like where’s the beef.  I didn’t even have anything else to tack on to the answer.  Thank God he didn’t ask 🙂 .  

I’ve loved the Grilled Romaine Salads I’ve had in a few restaurants and wanted to capture that same flavor, so I gave it a try.  And… I HIT IT first attempt.
