ROME 26/3– Day 00: Brooklyn and blog

I’ve been somewhat crippled in regard to posting. Since the migration of the blog, some things have either been very slow (the entire admin area) or not working at all, like the app on my phone that allows me to upload photos and to post while on the go. Yesterday I found that the poll plugin doesn’t work. So, we are trying to figure out what’s what.

Also, I had a couple of registrations which seemed a little dodgy, so I deleted them.  I take that “bio” section seriously.

Anyway, I’m in Brooklyn for the moment. I leave for Rome tonight, if we can get through TSA check lines.  We’ve had some good pub food and great chinese. (I have to email myself the photos and process them rather than just post from the phone.)

Brooklyn… Lent… knisch.

On Friday we explored the non-meat options starting with shrimp shumai.

There was a fishy stew with garlic and cabbage.

Crunchy cucumbers.

For the pub selection, the shot of my burger didn’t turn out well, but one of my companions had… but wait… first, there was this before we went in… A little Latin and an episcopal galero on an apartment building.

More Latin inside with the arrival of the Belgian…

Delirium Tremens… with elephants.  I dunno.

Back to the plot…

The onion rings were great, too.

Back to chinese on a meaty Sunday evening.  “Soup dumplings”.

Cumin Lamb

Eggplant, potatoes and pepper (we won’t get this on again… I’ve had better elsewhere)

Shrimp with mayonnaise.  There are crispy sweet walnuts and, underneath, chunks of pineapple.

Beef and vegetables.

Not too bad.
