| The pretty scene at a lobster stack, Geno's Chowder & Sandwich Shop,
where we went for lunch.
| Lobster soup. Good when hot.
| An okay lobster sandwich, accompanied by okay potato chips.
| Colorful autumn trees and a stately house, both spotted while walking around
Portsmouth.

| Popovers, a cafe where we
stopped for a snack.
| The eponymous popovers: light, hollow rolls. Accompanied by maple
butter. Good.

My mom's shrimp and vegetable stir fry, which we tossed with pasta. This picture sadly doesn't reflect the dish's vibrant colors.

| Birthday Dinner at Texas Roadhouse (in Newington) on September 4, 2008

Pictures with my parents from this dinner at the Texas Roadhouse in Newington
are elsewhere.
| Very good dinner rolls with cinnamon butter.
| Good house salad with house-made ranch dressing. They got my order
wrong, leaving off the croutons and making me manual removing the
cheese. No big deal.
| A good prime rib--the caliber of P.J. Skidoos, my Virginia-located
benchmark--and good steak fries.
Doesn't the dish look tasty? It was. :)

| A good house-made chocolate cake brownie, though with admittedly too
little ice cream.
|
Most of us ate prime rib. I believe Di Yin ordered a combination plate
of some sort.

We all scavenged. My parents had a pizza. I had an omelette. Di Yin
had her Texas Roadhouse leftovers.
