Perspectives of a Canadian in the Old/Deep/New/Geographic South: This is where I ramble on about nothing in particular and post a few nice pictures.
Today I ventured out to the downtown Taco Boy for the the Social Media Club (Charleston) happy hour. It was a nice fun and informal get-together with a surprisingly diverse crowd of people.
It was my first trip to Taco Boy, and it turned out pretty good. The Taco Boy is dog friendly, something I wish I had known earlier. I’m sure the dogs would have loved to go meet everybody.
There was a pretty good turn out of people at today’s event. There were a few familiar faces, but also a lot of new ones. It was nice meeting new people, and also meeting some of the people I’ve met on Twitter.
Jared told me the guy in the hat is the TwitPic guy.
Met a bunch of fellow CSCLUGers at Ted’s Butcherblock today for one of their $12 Friday night dinners. Today’s menu was grilled domestic shrimp with truffled summer succotash, crisp parmesan grit cake with cauliflower buttermilk puree.
First of all, cauliflower buttermilk puree? Totally not yuck like you might think. In fact, if you didn’t read the menu, you’d never know it was even made of cauliflower. I wanted more of it on my plate. Shrimp: Yum. Grit cake: excellent with the puree.
Everything on the plate was really yummy.
For dessert there were a couple of Chocolate-Banana Eclairs
Delicious.
Yeah, I have to go back for more of these $12 Friday night dinners.
