Lunch at Gail's
Loafs of bread at our local Gail's.

My "breakfast sandwich".  A sandwich, served warm, with a fried 
scrambled-egg pancake (containing green onions), melted brie-like 
cheese, and cucumbers.  The sandwich was better than I guessed based on 
its ingredients and how it looked.  (I bought it mostly out of 
curiosity.)  The egg in particular was good, unlike how I imagined a 
reheated fried thing would be. The photograph is pretty.

I was told to stop taking pictures before I could photograph any of the desserts, breakfast pastries, or sandwiches. This, in spite of the fact that Di Yin has previously taken pictures at this particular Gail's and I've taken pictures at another one. (The other Gail's, however, was smaller / had less of a selection.)

Dinner at Betsy Smith
We sat in this corner near the front of Betsy Smith, under a 
chair-with-a-chandelier-on-it turned upside-down, and in clear view of 
similarly upside-down pink flamingos. 
Incidentally, I'd previously 
photographed most of the rest of Betsy Smith's quirky interior.
A pizza of mozzarella, tomato sauce, rocket (arugula), parma ham, and 
parmesan shavings.  Quite good.  Parma ham makes anything delicious.
A white pizza of mozzarella and roasted aubergine (eggplant), courgettes 
(zucchini), and peppers.  Decent/good.

The pizzas must have had a lot of hidden salt--both Di Yin and I woke up thirsty in the middle of the night.
