As for my adventures today, not much to report. But I did have some rather nice culinary diversions today...
As I eluded to earlier, I found the aforementioned C.C. Brown's in the new Schwab's complex at Sunset+Vine. The "+" is how the complex is named. Someone bought the Schwab's name, and there's a shopping arcade that's part of the complex. There's also a Schwab's restaurant. Plus, some pretty high end apartment units. In any case...
Since BK had mentioned it before, I decided to check it out on my way to rehearsal. Once I got to Sunset+Vine, I didn't see any new sign for C.C. Brown's anywhere on the outside in the courtyard earlier. Well... I decided to head inside, and, lo and behold, there was an ice cream freezer case and small counter right by the entrance to the shopping area. I looked at the menu, made some mental notes, then continued onto rehearsal...
I almost had a dinner consisting of a C.C. Brown's Sundae, but I opted instead to head downt he street to Super Tortas to get, what else? - a
torta, Mexican sandwich. This was my first time here. I had seen some write ups for the place here and there, and decided to give it a try today. In short, Good! I opted for the machaca (shredded beef) and egg sandwich. A very good bolillo (bun), very good beef and egg, a light schmear of refried beans and some not too hot hot sauce. And a very good deal for about five dollars and some change - it's a nice-sized
torta.
After finishing up my sandwich, I continued on to rehearsal... which BK already spoke about...
