Jumped on an early morning call with the prototyping team. I love seeing it come together and I really hope it gets signed off by the high ups. But if not, we can always build our own through the local team.
I spent four hours after that with Dad at his doctor appointments. It was mostly a lot of waiting but I was able to get in a twenty five minute nap afterwards since I only had two hours of sleep.
I drove and picked up Joel for lunch at La Madeline, more of a snack for me but I got kind of full. He was sweet in buying me a fruit tart since I got coffee last time. My little intern is all grown up!
After a while of catching up with Joel, I dropped him off at his work and went and picked up Salim from his work for a super late lunch at Gus’s World Famous Fried Chicken, his favourite fried chicken place. (That’s only because he’s never been to Jollibee or Bawls!)
Dark thighs are always my favourite and it was pretty darn good. I wished it was spicier but other than that, it’s a pretty good southern fried chicken. We thought their greens would be green beans but if was collard greens. I was a bit disappointed but they started growing on me as I ate them.
He also said they had good pies, at least the ones he has tried. He’s never had sweet potato pie here so we decided to be “healthy”. He says this was the worst pie he’s gotten here. I agree. It wasn’t that great. If I ever come back I’ll try one of the chess pies he likes.
I’ve been wanting to try this place and glad I finally got to cross it off my list! Where’s my next new foodventure?
