New lunch choices today. Plus: Vote for Circa

Just a reminder that A&R Bar-b-que at Third and Court and NYC Deli in the SunTrust building are now open for lunch, so check them out if you haven’t already.

I’m going to throw in a mention for Bardog Tavern here as well.  I was in there last Wednesday and was shocked that place hadn’t built more of a lunch crowd than it already has.  Here are a few of my favorites:

  • The spaghetti with Aldo’s grandmom’s meatballs.  I’d put their spaghetti & meatballs up against any Italian restaurant in the city.
  • The saloon sliders, 3 mini-burgers cooked on the grill.  Comes with fries with ketchup and their Bourbon mayonnaise dipping sauce which is really good.
  • The Woof Woof Chow Chow, the hot dog version of their sliders, also with fries.
  • If you’re not very hungry you can get a single burger or hot dog slider without the fries.
  • The Rambo, the sandwich I posted about last week with NY strip steak, pepperoncini, and red peppers.  It’s a little pricey for lunch (over $11) but it comes with fries and is enough for two friends or co-workers to split.

Last night I dreamed that I was back in college, living in a dorm which was called “New Dorm” at the time I attended.  (Meaning, no one had donated gobs of money to get their name on the dorm.)  Next door to my room was a Foot Locker which had a game room and food court inside.  I’m not really sure how to analyze this dream.  I’m pretty sure it’s the first time I’ve ever dreamed about Foot Locker.

That’s all for now.  Got to go buy a shirt that fits that I can wear to job interviews.  Not excited about having to put on a tie again.  After I got the last job I hoped that interview would be the last time in my life I’d ever have to wear a tie.
