Title: Valentines Dinner
Post by: NePaSmoKer on February 14, 2013, 04:17:56 PM
We didn't cook. We had reservations at The Old School Diner. Chef Jerome has been on food network and is said to have served over 1 million.

Looks like hey don't get out huh. Yes the drive and parking lot is carpeted  :D

Being we were the 1st ones to have made reservations we got to eat in Ben's room (yes Ben Affleck) who eats here 4-5 times a year.

This is Ben's table in front of the fireplace. He autographed a chair that everyone wants to sit in.

A Jimmie John's #9 sandwich and some wine.  Wife got flowers, a ring, a necklace, bracelet, and earrings---me I just got one thing --the ok to buy a whole lot of BBQ crap tools.  Shopping now for a fridge for a dry cure sausage chamber and associated hardware (humidifier, temp controller, etc). Sweeeet, good trade off  ;D ;D

That is definitely my kind of place. For a second i thought you had a straw in your wine. One way to get her tanked fast. lol..
My New wife as of Dec28 made me the best chicken pot pies...I would post pics but how they were served may get me in trouble.ha

I will have to put that place on my list... Another fine establishment... Thanks for posting.
