Alcohol and desserts always add to the bill. And I think it's OK to suggest sharing a starter in lieu of each getting a salad. Just some ideas. I know it's tough dating when you don't want to come off cheap. But with everything so expensive these days, I think she'd understand.

Our 4pm show (Juno) on a weekend was scheduled for the "great" adults only, alcohol-allowed baloncy in theater one. The problem was the bar/kitchen wasn't open until 4 as well (on a weekend). So we paid a $2/ticket ammenity fee for NO AMMENITIES. I did wait for a cheese plate which absolutely sucked, btw. and then I had to walk in front of people as the movie was starting at 4:10. We got there 12/ hr early in teh hopes of eating and drinking beforehand. bummer nothing was available.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34927862.post-51559599386339982972007-12-27T10:03:00.000-08:002007-12-27T10:03:00.000-08:00Thanks agent713, it's nice to have options! ;-)Ano...Thanks agent713, it's nice to have options! ;-)<BR/><BR/>Anonymous, I never thought of mixing everything.

But then I realized that it was sort of a deconstructed dish (like a vegan spaghetti and meatballs) so I mixed all the ingredients together and it tasted so much better. But, the waiter doesn't tell you to mix it together so I don't know if that if the chefs intent.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34927862.post-18145370593185167092007-12-27T09:18:00.000-08:002007-12-27T09:18:00.000-08:00Ben I'll come be your date :DSounds like a neat pl...Ben I'll come be your date :D<BR/><BR/>Sounds like a neat place.
