Mine is always the main meal. No room for sides...
Yep.
This trip, I've given up trying to get my son ( and his son, who's even more picky) to try anything new. I cook for myself, my wife and my middle son. The others can eat what they want; which usually revolves around pizza, burgers and BBQ meat.

I would have had the shrimps as well, but will go for the nachos insteadWe went to a mall yesterday, because we needed to get out of the house and my wife was unable to control her shopping addiction.
For me and my son, the trip was as exciting as a visit to a cemetry, so we wandered off to find somewhere to eat, and ended up here.
Chicken potstickers for the lad, and Thai chilli shrimp for me. OK, I suppose, but the "Thai chilli shrimp" were about as "Thai" as my grandma's knickers.
They were yummy, as far as breaded, deep-fried shrimp are concerned, but I don't get "Thai" served with aioli and I don't get "Thai" without chiles, lemongrass, basil, galangal, and fish sauce.
What's your choice?

By the way, I hate menu's that state calories.....
I just find that hilarious. I completely ignore the "calories" because I'm not interested. You can just imagine a 110Kg husband and wife sitting at the table next to me and saying: "I think I'll have the fried calamari and the mac & cheese. Oooohh nooooo!! That's over 2,000 calories honey? Let's go with the salad and crab bites! "
"Waitress - can I please have 6 portions of the beet & avocado salad, and 2 dozen crab bites?"

Stuffed mushrooms please
I’m having a number 6.
Hate fruited beers. Maybe I would try No.1, the stout.

I'd probably join you.
The first five, and the last two, have such ridiculous names, I could probably never bring myself to drink one.
I'd go for the Togarashi blackened catch of the day,kaneohegirlinaz
I'd also ask you if you can arrange a loan with a local bank to pay for it.

The tomato salad to start, the ribeye for my main, with a side of mashed potatoes.

karadekoolaid the catch of the day last night was Swordfish and yes, it was a bit spendy there, but we weren't paying, soooo 
Both of our nieces' husbands have VERY good jobs that pay extremely well.
Note to self: remember to mail thank you cards to both the girls!!!

I recall a million years ago when you could get swordfish in the regular grocery for around $5 a piece...karadekoolaid the catch of the day last night was Swordfish and yes, it was a bit spendy there, but we weren't paying, soooo
