Brian is getting his studying in whenever and wherever he can. Yup. That’s my studious hubby!

Oh Yeah!

Where do you take a vegetarian friend to dinner? Oh Yeah! of course. LOL.

Here’s the appetizer sampler that I always get because it has a bunch of things I like.

Untitled

I think I got the Mongolian beef but honestly can’t can’t remember. Whatever it was that I had, it was good. LOL.

Untitled

Brian had something like sweet and sour chicken. No surprise there.

Untitled

These are Christina’s soy patties.

Cookies!

Oh Yeah China Bistro on Urbanspoon

Dinner was the hand off. After dinner, Christina and I went on to the Orpheum for MOMIX: Botanica 2013 while Brian went home to wait for his friends to come over.

MOMIX: Botanica was amazing, by the way. I was in awe of the performance the entire time. The best, most creative dancing I have ever seen. I’m so glad that Christina invited me to go with her. I couldn’t believe that there were empty seats in the auditorium. Wichitans have no idea what they missed. Seriously.

Same with Oh Yeah! I think this is one of the best kept secrets of Wichita. People who have never been don’t know what they’re missing. Seriously.

Nightcap with the Latin Americans and Christina

It was a good excuse to fire up the fireplace.

By the time Christina and I got home from MOMIX: Botanica Brian and the rest of our visitors were already three sheets to the wind, on account of Ron Zacapa (Brian’s new favorite rum).

Breakfast at Curly’s American Diner

Posted on October 8, 2013 by under Food and Drink.    

Untitled

Brian and I took grandma out to breakfast on Saturday after my Zumba class.

Untitled

Grandma and our friend Brandy who we hadn’t seen in a long time. I think the last time we saw her was at the old Highlands and that was almost five years ago.

Untitled

Brandy and Brian have a moment.

Untitled

Believe it or not, all grandma wanted was a waffle. I’m thinking we probably need to buy a waffle maker so we can make her some waffles next time we serve brunch at the house. LOL.

Untitled

Brian got the loaded biscuits (see the description below). They’re a lot like the “breakfast gumbo” that Brian always orders by piecing together several items off the menu at every diner or breakfast eatery we try. They really should rename this menu item “The Brian” – LOL.

Untitled

I got the courthouse scramble, which is pretty much everything else scrambled together in a skillet. I asked for it without onions because I just don’t like onions.

Untitled

I had the option of getting Texas toast, pancake, or biscuit with gravy with my meal. I opted for the biscuit with gravy because I was really hungry.

curly's America diner on Urbanspoon

The quality of the food at Curly’s is pretty mediocre but they seem to have a good following. The one thing that I do like about Curly’s is the friendly service.

Brandy is phenomenal. I think even if she didn’t know us we still would have received fantastic service. That’s why she’s the most highly sought after server at the restaurant.

There are so many great breakfast options in town. If I were to let the food be my guide, I’d probably have breakfast elsewhere… Like at home… Brian makes a kick butt breakfast spread. LOL. Kidding aside, if you do see me at Curly’s again, know that I’m not there for the food. I’m there for Brandy and her great customer service.
