It is actually a really good time to check out the restaurants off the Dine Out radar. :) Hi Matt - glad you & Sporttygal were able to find a sitter. :) I've been wanting to try Brix for a while...let me know how that goes!

Sporttygal and I don't get many opportunities for 'fine dining' that involves a 2.5 hour seating for dinner. Most of them are 15 minute chow sessions before our l'il guy needs to get down or risk throwing peas and potatoes across the table :) Thank god we found a great babysitter!

That way I can avoid the assembly-line mentality of the Dine Out restaurants, not have to fight my way through crowds and actually order what I want from the menus.
