Lunch, Anybody?

Trader Joe's apricot-mango greek yogurt, string cheese stick, wheat thins, cherry tomatoes. Hubby got the leftovers (baked chicken dinner). Need to get groceries!

A surprisingly good plate of pad Thai...

...from a gas station.

One of the food shows (which is like all the other food shows), I think "Diners Drive-inns and Dives" visits gas-station-associated restaurants from time to time. There's usually a quirky story (the owner's son had a passion for cooking and when his dad got sick he merged his filial responsibilities with his passion...), but IMHO it reflects the foodie-culture having gone mainstream country wide. And while good and bad have come out of that, that's a handsome looking dish of pad Thai and there's nothing wrong with that.

Ham and turkey on a sub roll, a Honeycrisp apple, and Diet Coke.

Fried potatoes!! With normal pommes-spicing and pommes-spicing "HOT".

Scrambled eggs with cheddar and tarragon.

Peach yogurt, Planter's cocktail peanuts and a slice of orange-chocolate bundt cake. I tried to make it somewhat balance and nutritional, but not sure where I really landed.

The Panda Express in Terminal 3 at O'Hare serves up a real smorgasbord but no eel.

Never been, but one just opened around the corner from me so I'm sure we'll check it out shortly. Any must tries?

Cheeseburger doused in A-1 sauce, french fries doused in malt vinegar. And a Dayquil.

Everybody pretty much agrees the orange chicken is their signature dish. I'm partial go the chow mien, and have never tried to rice. The Beijing Beef is a personal favorite of mine, if you enjoy sweet and spicy.

Thank you. Is the orange chicken real white meat or "pressed" in that strange way some fast food places "create" chicken that appears to be white, but God knows what is really going on there?

Pressed, I think? I've never actually studied the inside of it.
