BlogMeet

Soooo.... I figured the Brew Pub would be open; I mean, how could they not...?

Pretty easily, as it turned out. But no matter; intrepid scouts quickly located those few places that were open (Brugge among them) and 'twas determined that Canal Bistro, right next to the turtle-threatening sculpture, would be our spot.

And a good thing it was; there's nothing like saganaki, battered and deep-fried calimari, gyros, lamburgers (!) and/or a good Greek salad to pep up a chilly, rainy day -- nothing, that is, except good company: ...Not my day for photography. But clockwise from lower left, we have Brigid, The Jack, Joanna, Old Grouch, Dave (Scout 26 of The Cancer Ward -- his very first Indy BlogMeet), Nathan, an empty seat (cos that's mine) and Tamara K!

The food was great and there was even a little excitement outside, but that I will have to let others tell and/or leave for another time, as I'm back to the eye-doctor, to see if they'll maybe sell me some contacts.

Should I admit to seeing things like this? I'd always wondered where they came from....

  5. It's -- Opa! -- saganaki and it is indeed quite good; and I say that as someone who is not a big consumer of cheese.

  6. I heart Broad Ripple: I have one place I can get saganaki in easy walking distance of the house, and another only a short bike ride away.


    WV is, I swear on Queequeg's coffin full of calamari, "squid". Skynet is obviously waking up.
