For birthday festivities: Round 2, we hit up The Bottle Room. We enjoyed a juicy turkey burger stuck with a knife, perfectly crispy x-sm shoestring fries, cheese and some drank.

After having one my first eggs benedict from Vienna Cafe (aside from one from a breakfast buffet in Hawaii), I was hooked.
A pillow-like, poached egg with an oozing yolk on a bed of ham, topped with some rich, heart-seizing hollandaise is to die for.
I found out one of my heroes, Alton Brown, had an episode on eggs benedict so I found an episode and got to learning!
After following his episode’s instructions exactly our hollandaise was WAY too red. He called for 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper and then later even added more! His Food Network instructions called for 1/8 tsp. to start. Someone messed up.
So we retried the recipe the following day and it was incredible!

This was adapted from Alton’s recipe. He baked homemade english muffins, but we used store bought. Lemon juice rounds out the sauce well. Use a lemon squeezer for faster results if you’re making a huge batch.
Get an english muffin, top with ham, a poached egg and top off with hollandaise.

A hot day at Greek Fest won’t stop the dancing.

Seriously, greasy chips paired with some rich feta. We couldn’t get enough. After Greek Fest, we tried finding something as good or similar, but still no luck…
I usually don’t even like lamb but these tiny little things were shockingly good. Perfectly seasoned, perfectly cooked (I swear I didn’t only like them because they were $4-5 a piece).

Meat flippin’ action.
Expensive greek beer was a fail. Better than no beer, though.
