Even though I think Washington Avenue is the scariest area in Houston, we decided to take our chances and have dinner at Blue Fish. No one around here is trying to act like a sushi expert. Just so you know, I could act like a sushi expert if I wanted to. This behavior is possible because I married none other than a half-Asian half-Scottish guy. That's right.

Today is National French Fry Day. Triniti must hold its head high on this above average day, for they exceed all French fry expectations. Every fry is cooked crispy crunchy to perfection. Who likes a lame fry having no crunch? Eww. Even worse, the soggy fry. Barf.
