*Please bear with me...Normally I write my text ABOVE the photos, but something is messed up whenever I try to add a space above the photo in Edit mode. It erases the photos, but yet when I return to the post, all the photos are there again. Also, something pops us saying that I can't change screens with unsaved changes. Gah! I'll figure it out later, but in the meantime, get used to this...
My good friend (the one with whom I went to Eclipse back in May) met up for lunch in late July. I was so happy to be out of the house and eating at a restaurant for the first time in weeks. We decided to go to the Thai BBQ chicken place (next to Saffron) on India Street. Here is the menu (above).
I got the two Thigh combo, with Jasmine rice, Cambodian salad (it was just coleslaw with peanuts) and peanut sauce.
My friend got the wing (plus part of the back) and breast combo.

Closeup of the juicy chicken skin...Oh yeahhh! We pretty much demolished our plates. Well, we did have some leftover rice,but the chicken was done for! I really liked the spices they use to season the chicken skin. The chicken parts were tender, but fully cooked through (no Salmonella here folks) and delicious! This was way better than regular rotisserie chicken! The peanut sauce was also great with the chicken!
By the way, the Thai Chicken BBQ place is not a sit down place. It's strictly a take out joint, but right next door is Saffron Chicken (same owner). I snagged a table in the patio for Saffron while my friend ordered our meals. For dessert, we walked a few steps down to Gelato Vera Caffe. I had a buy one get one free coupon burning a hole in my pocket (Woo hoo! I'm a cheapass!)
She had the coffee with the dark chocolate (I think that's what it was!)...This was a medium sized gelato by the way.
I chose the gianduja (hazelnut), which tasted awesome! For our next gelato outing, we plan to return to Pappalecco in Little Italy.
