Jason rocking out at Clinton’s
I have to thank James for saving me from squandering a perfectly good weekend on wielding screwdrivers (the non-alcoholic kind), IKEA shelving assembly, and a whole lotta cleaning. All necessary, mind you, but after two days of not doing anything else I was ready to make a break for it. At 8pm Sunday I was wrestling with an Allen key and a stubborn bolt, and I tossed it all aside to get cleaned up and head for a pub called Clinton’s where James said his nephew’s band was playing at 8:30.
I met up with James and some of his family at the pub, but apparently there was a double-booking of bands that bumped all the starts to later in the evening and shrunk the set times. The band wouldn’t get on stage until 9:30.
So what do we do? Why eat, of course:
If you’ve never tried Korean food before, you are sorely missing out. Some of the dishes might be a tad spicy for Western palates, but it’s easy enough to avoid the chili peppers. I don’t know a lick of Korean to read their menus, but I’ve never eaten any Korean food I didn’t like. All you have to do is look at some photos and ask a few questions if you’re not sure, but you really can’t go wrong if you keep an open mind (and mouth). And you can’t go wrong with the price, either: all of our food, two main dishes and all those appetizers, came to less than $20! You just can’t beat that, and it’s not fast food… although, our food arrived incredibly quickly.
“It’s like they were waiting for us,” James remarked.
OK, back to the music.
