Friday Maxine Goes On the Injured Reserves List

Maxine fell while jogging on a treadmill Friday afternoon. She's healing, but slowly.

So, I (Tom) will do the restaurant review for Friday night. We went to Toro Bravo (http://www.torobravopdx.com/). Really great food. Lots of flavors. Olives with blue cheese inside. Dates with bacon outside. Shreds of prosciutto alongside shreds of lemon peel. Dessert that you dipped in hot chocolate sauce. Interestingly varied mixed drinks menu. They had a huge chalkboard where they listed all their vendors -- I can't help but imagine it must really be a motivator to them.

We'd go back here again in a second. Total cost for dinner was under $60 for 2. Terrific value and very very good food.
