Crispins

we were planning to head back to la today after a long weekend with the family in dana point but my mom convinced us to stay. she wooed us with promises of a free dinner at a new restaurant in town and of course, we couldn't refuse.

the restaurant wasn't exactly what we expected - and that's putting it lightly. it was really more like a denny's or ihop but without the familiar name. under normal circumstances, this wouldn't be too big a deal but it was saturday night and we were expecting to walk into a dinner club or steakhouse.

accepting our fate, i searched high and low but there was no rooty tooty fresh and fruity or moons over my hammy on the menu. in fact, there were no breakfast items anywhere so actually, it's only similarity to denny's and ihop was in the ambiance.

we laughed our way through dinner and all the way back to the house. oh well...you gotta give it to chocolate for wanting to try something new!
