Just got another update from my Shamrock 1/2 marathon and it says that as part of your race packet you get tickets for 4 free beers after the race!!! Ok if I actually drank all 4 of those and after running a 1/2 marathon and on a practically empty stomach I would probably be drunk!!! And I really have no desire to look like this guy:
Lately there are two place I haven't been able to get enough of:
1. Thai Vegan They are soooo yummy and the owner is nice and thoughtful. He did the catering for my brother's small wedding and gave them a really good deal and of course awesome food. The best part is I've taken a lot of friends there that are not vegetarian or vegan and every time they love it, I've won over some skeptics. Some of my to die for menu items are Won Ton Noodle Soup!!!! this can cure any ailment
Tom Yum Soup for those of you who like it a little spicy
And the Green Curry Oh and they have a camera in the kitchen so you can watch them cook.
2. Il Vicino - I love their micro brewed beer especially their brown and the fact that they have the nutrition info online, give you the option to order a "small" of anything on their menu and customize all you want. I usually get their small vegetarian calzone sometimes with no cheese and sometimes with no goat cheese but ok on the mozzarella.
I don't really enjoy eating out so when I find a restaurant I like it is awesome. Some of the criteria that makes a restaurant excellent in my book is: nutrition info., fresh ingredients, and flexibility with ordering.
Do you enjoy eating out? If so what is your criteria for a good restaurant?

I would totally look like that guy if I drank 4 beers even without running a half!! We used to go out to dinner a lot before our daughter. Fresh ingredients are always top on my list...my hubby's list always was topped with steak!
LOL. After finishing the VA is for lovers 14k, we had two free beer tickets. I drank those and got one more free beer as well. 3 total beers and I was drunk!!!
i HATE chain restaurants so anything local makes me happy. i just tried this burger joint after my race on sunday and it was amazing. :)
I have never had a beer after a race! I'd love one...but not 4!
The medal holder is freaking awesome! That will be so cool to hang all your victories on!
Whenever we go to Albuquerque, we MUST eat tons and tons of Mexican. haha. My favorite is Ortegas and La Placita in Old Town...only like them because they have this Navajo Taco I can't find anywhere else. YUM!
Wow, 4 free beers is crazy. I can't remember ever seeing a race offer more than 1, but then again I don't drink so it doesn't matter much to me either way.
I like to eat out but don't so very often. Aside from the obvious that it has to be tasty, I guess my criteria is that I like to eat food that I wouldn't prepare for myself or can't find a good off the shelf equivalent for.
I love Sadies, Richards and El Pinto!
I love the Allied Hangar
I had a beer once on the course, never again
