Haha, our waiter tonight, in Gettysburg, is from NZ. Two different towns, two different nights, two NZ’ers.

This is our first time at this restaurant, and they have some creative stuff.

I’ve mentioned in the past how spaghetti sandwiches are a Midwest staple - we’re not in the Midwest, of course, but just next door…they have a juiced-up version of a spaghetti sandwich on the menu - spaghetti grilled cheese.

MrsT ordered that and said it’s one of the best things she’s ever eaten. I had a bite and it’s definitely very, very good.

I had a taco salad with 4-bean spicy chili. Also excellent.

This is the best macaroni salad I've ever had.
So good, it will be even better after it marries.

Eli and I just had some ribs. Chef at her work knows I like them. Wanted my opinion?
Meat was moist but sauce needs work. More brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce. Imo.

I'm making a homemade pot pie. Chicken, onion, garlic, celery, carrots, potatoes, corn and peas with a creamy sauce baked in a buttery bottom and top cust.

Edit: that was good!
