It may have been better than the field for this week's Byron Nelson.
Eat the entire honey bun along with an ice cold glass of whole milk. Can’t go wrong.

Went between Christmas and NYE. Meal was excellent. Service was top notch. I had the Cajun rib-eye and wife had the filet.

Similar menu to what you find at Chop House but with fewer items.

Interior renovations look great - nice large bar on the left side now.

One more bonus - no corkage fee.

Stopped at Zuppardo's around 9:15 this morning.
The line outside for Dong Phuong king cakes was long.
I guess those are a good cure for winter weather.

The parking lot on days like today may be more dangerous than the weather.
Went last night. Had an excellent meal.

Arrived a few minutes early and was seated right away. Place was busy, but it got even busier about one hour later. If you recall that the bar was on the back right, it's now on the left side and is much larger than the old one. You can eat at the bar as well.

Service was very good. Wife had the filet and I had the Cajun rib-eye. Both were very good. Sides and salads are large and can easily be split between two.

One more positive - no corkage fee.
It’s on CNBC now. No details
Just a tech issue as of now.

Either one sounds better than Nizmo.

I think Mazda might get wrapped into this too.


Not sure about Mazda, but I believe that Mitsubishi - at least the automotive division - is going to be in the combined company.

From WSJ this morning:
quote:

The companies said they intended to create an automaker that, combined with Nissan partner Mitsubishi Motors, would be the third-largest carmaker in the world, after Toyota and Volkswagen, with more than eight million vehicles sold annually.

I like the comment from JT.

Went to Spain in early October. Just getting around to posting this.

12 nights total - 4 in Barcelona, 4 in Olite (Navarre) in the Parador, 4 in Madrid. Had a car in Olite. Took a train from Barcelona to Zaragoza where we got the car, then returned in there 4 days later and took a train to Madrid.

Barcelona - Sagrada Familia, Park Guell, walking in the Gothic Quarter, one day small group trip to Monteserrat with lunch at a winery - this was excellent.

Olite - visited Logrono (food & wine), San Sebastian (food, scenery, history), and some small towns in Navarre for food & wine - all were great and would do again.

Zaragoza - spent about half a day walking and visiting the Basilica of the Our Lady of the Pilar - incredible church with a great story.

Madrid - museums, churches, food, and one day on a bus to Segovia, Avila, and Toledo. All were very good. Plenty of history.

Would love to return and spend some time in southern Spain, and probably the north again. Toying around with the idea of walking part of the Camino at some point.

Overall - A+ - liked this as Italy.
Went about 4 years ago. Flew into LAS, then drove to Hatch. Had a cabin just outside of town. Drove from there to Bryce for one long day, then drove down to Zion and was fortunate enough to stay in the Lodge onsite.

Not much going on in Hatch but I recall a few cabins in the area.
I think we stayed in Sevier River Ranch & Cattle Company. My son found it on AirBnb.
Has anyone tried Antoni's Italian Cafe? On Coolidge.
