those are the meats i tried in the order that i liked them but there were several other options that i didn’t try. it was a hard choice to decide which meat was my favorite but in the end the parmesan put the filet just barely ahead of the lamb chops even with the edge of the balsamic vinegar. i did however eat 3 of those chops so that should tell you how close in the running for my favorite meat dish. aside from the meat the bar was ok but it only had a few options that made me go back for seconds. i really like cooked veggies but most items served on the bar were cold and i ended up not eating the veggies i normally love. at the side bar they did have a mango coleslaw that was good, some very tasty garlic mashed potatoes and even tastier coconut sweet potatoes. as if this food wasn’t enough ate too many cheesy bread balls and gilled pineapple. i seriously don’t know why more restaurants don’t have grilled pineapple available on the menu, it’s amazing!! i guess i was so excited about the pineapple that i never got a picture of it.. oops. we ended the night at the griffins for gelato and girl talk.

pampas
tonight we celebrated a friend’s birthday by going to dinner in palo alto to a new place we’d never been to called pampas. it’s brazilian bbq and for dinner of course i chose the unlimited rodizio and side bar. with an endless array of meat such as but was not limited to: filet mignon w/parmesan, lamb chop topped with balsamic vinegar, spicy chicken legs, pork loin adobo, brazilian pork sausage, tri-tip, bacon wrapped turkey, leg of lamb, skirt steak and top sirloin.
