Dinner w girth...
His name is garrick, but back wen I played in bball leagues my friends called him girth... Don't ask me why...
Smallest hotel bar ever..
Seriously this is the size of the hotel bar.. U get a free drink coupon w ur stay here so I thought I'd have a beer while waiting for my friend garrick for dinner.
A b c d... Errrr
Don't know if u can see it, but fobber korean was doing a BAD job on his sobriety test. 5-0 showed him several times how to walk a straight line... But the lemon soju was obviously showing its effects....

$5.00 gas hits Orange County...
You can follow gas prices on this website...
http://www.orangecountygasprices.com/
Gas (Premium) has hit $5.00 at Chevron in San Juan Capistrano...
I seriously need to consider riding my bike to work... even though I hate these prices, I still think McCain's proposed "gas tax holiday" is stupid... just like GW, he's trying to stick his finger to stop the leak in the dam...

Opah
Scallops with Risotto. Definitely our favorite dish here... I think my friend Art would hate this place b/c of his despise for the Irvine yuppie crowd, but some of the food here is pretty good...
Opah in Irvine
Pomegranate Martini for the wife. Ate too fast but the Shrimp Prosciutto and Thai Mango Spring Rolls are excellent

Boiling Crab Review
No pics right now, but my thoughts on boiling crab... i was thinkin about going there for my birthday later this week, but decided to scope it out early since annette and i were taking her dad out for a late father's day dinner...
first, the original one on euclid is pretty small, in a strip mall. i thought it was in garden grove, but its more like westminster. the primary clientele is 18-25 year old vietnamese kids... i felt bad for bringing annette's dad there... it's a down home kinda place where they put wax paper on the table and you eat with your hands off the table (maybe why it appeals to the vietnamese... lol)
we had shrimp, crawfish and dungeness crab with the whole shabang sauce (mix of lemon, garlic and spicy sauce) which was pretty good. its pretty messy, my hands still smell. i dont recommend the crawfish as its too much work for almost no meat... maybe crawfish is not in season... the crab was really good though... i'd say its worth a try but the crab at the korean joints in redondo is much better.
