    I was just in Chicago for 10 days and didn't eat any Deep-dish. I did have some great Swordfish though.

    Cool TGR/JJ's "HIGHER" on Weds night in SF? RU Going?

    Bay Area Mags.
    "HIGHER" is playing at Palace of Fine Arts on Weds 9/24 (tomorrow).
    $18 entry includes a Mon-Fri Squaw/Alpine Comp


    Just wondering who amongst us is planning on going to see it?

    Should be Cinders & me, and Miqy, plus TiniDakini and ShadeGardener, at the Late Show.
    If we get there early we'll look for Tailgate activity...

    ...Remember, those who think Global Warming is Fake, also think that Adam & Eve were Real...

    I didn't believe in reincarnation when I was your age either.

    But what's your opinion on pizza?

    I'll join. As far as pizza goes. I make a pretty good vegi pizza at home. But Base camp pizza for best pizza here in south lake. As far as N.Y. vs Chicago style pizza NY all day. Let's not get started on fish tacos though.

    Ill be game to give a pair of rock skis a decomposed granite base grind if we get enough snow.

    I hope to progress from pizza to French fries this winter and hopefully the toppings are always deep.

    For pizza in Reno, I've been pretty impressed with South Creek Pizza in south Reno. Wood fired thin crust. Fresh, quality ingredients. Very cool, friendly owners. Always have great beer selection both on draft and in bottles.

    Since we're talking east coast vs. west coast food items... are those lobster rolls at that place on West River in Truckee any good? I keep meaning to try them. I'm not expecting them to match the rolls I get whenever I'm back in Maine visiting family, but hopefully decent?

    Morgan's Fish Market is alright they try to put a Cali. spin on New England. Lobster rolls at McDonalds back east were better.
    Lot's of very good fresh west coast seafood to choose from. Pick your fish, pick seasoning, then pick how they cook it. Unique to me.
    Good Thin crust pizza in Reno try Nu Yalk Pizza on S. S. Virginia. They even have attitude, assholes! Jeter Sucks! Go Sox!
    I like Golden Flower Vietnamese behind Circus Circus. Gold & Silver Diner for that throwback feel. What do ya need to know?

    Morgans is good and a fair price for what you get but IMHO not worth the 18.00 for a small roll.

    Nu Yawk? Seriously? Puh-lease. Go to Tru New York in Sparks, then tell me Nu Yawk is good. All style, no substance.

    Phil...what do you expect from a Sox fan? He's got that omnipresent taste of Yankee fan cock in his mouth, which overpowers his taste buds.

    I know. Nothing at all like ex Californians living east when they start talking about Mexican food and fresh produce.

    And just to be clear, Chicago is not on the coast. It is the in the mid west.

    Dude, you'd seriously eat a crustacean that has traveled 3000 miles? Good luck with that.


    On a non snarky note, yay, it is raining again!

    Can see the weather from Carson valley. Heard there's a flash flood warning for the king fire. Kinda good news, I guess.

    In that case, we can safely assume that your opinion on pizza is solidly pro.

    and apparently FedEx ships them live from Maine all over the country. Whether Morgan's uses them or canned lobster meat I have no idea.

    A friend of mine who lives out here but grew up around New England had a fresh batch sent overnight from Maine and they were damn good. I don't want to know how much he spent, though. So it can be done. But I assume the only places out west that serve them like that are $50+ plates at nice restaurants.
