Everything was good, except the food was a little too lukewarm for my tastes; but I suppose that is part of the whole buffet deal. <BR/><BR/>Later in the day, I went to see <I>Zodiac</I>, which was excellent.

The burger was decent enough, with some water chestnuts in the mix and a piece of provolone melted on top. A slice of tomato, some red onion and a cross-section of pickle later, capped with squeezes of ketchup and mustard and I was pleased. <BR/><BR/>Jon Solomonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04112204325743904604noreply@blogger.com
