Lemongrass

It used to be Mike Teague's favorite restaurant in Maryville. We talked about going to it a million times and never did.

WELL...they just opened another Lemongrass on Executive Park Dr...right near where I live. Like literally a half mile max!

Anyone want to go?

I tried their masaman curry....I've got sushi sitting on my table waiting to try as well.

It's thai and sushi and it's great...not all you can eat....but great.

Never been, but I'd like to try it! We were just talking about Thai today (no Thai in Jefferson City that I'm aware of )
Only thing is that I couldn't meet-up until about 7-7:15.

I've tried Lemongrass Maryville = above good. There's a new Sushi place in Maryville I might like better; Nanha ??? I forget... Graham and I have been. But they have a one handed sushi chef or something so it takes a full hour for lunch.

--- Graham says "hi" everyone. Brewed beer with him 2 wks ago. Interestingly, it as difficult or more than SW tanks. And he's building the kick A$$ automated brewery; same concepts as SW but different techniques.

I'm off to Miami and the Keys come Friday so this may be the second sushi mtg I missed while in Miami. I dont mind. Hope a hook in the lip will be the least of my worries. I dont plan on driving while I'm there, that's for sure! Outlook: Black fin tuna, Mahi, Sails, Mutton, Grouper, Trout and if I dont have a dozen lobster tails I better stop at the fish market on the way home (says my wife).

I like Graham.

Matt...that's fine with me. I've been working late as H-E-double hockey sticks lately.

I wouldn't mind meeting up late! I can't do it this Tuesday or Wednesday, but can Monday, Thursday, or Friday even. I need to call Randy as he's not checking the board right now.

Say hi to Graham for us Don, and have a productive fishing trip!

Sounds good Mel, I think I'm free most of those evenings. I will check with Donny and Trey too. I'm not sure they check the boards too often either.

Matt... I just want to ask... exactly how many clowns does it take to have a circus?

You are the first to ask Brandon...to borrow another RC member's words,
How many Jelly Beans can you fit into a Tahoe?

My father once told me that I was "one fry short of a Happy Meal;" but somehow I don't think the exact number of fries was on his mind

If a Tahoe is 200 inches x 79 inches x 75 inches and it was not shaped like it is, but rather in the form of a rectangular cube, it would have a volume of 1,185,000 cubic inches. If 4 jelly beans could fix into one cubic inch, it would take 296,250 jelly beans to fill a wierd shaped Tahoe not counting the motor, seats, and other stuff that takes up room.

Man!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't divide by 4, multipy by 4. So, 4,740,000 in a wierd shaped Tahoe.

Jelly Belly Candy Company can produce 100,000 pounds of Jelly Belly beans a day, or 347 beans a second.

3 hours and 47 minutes to fill a wierd shaped Tahoe.

Hmm I love Thai, just haven't found one in Knox I like yet.

Anyone a PF Changs fan? If so we should try there sometime for those who do, they have enough vegetarian stuff there for me thats why I prefer it to other places.

Thanks, Matt! I was wondering...

I like PF Changs. I oddly enough think Pei Wei is possibly better, which is literally a fast-food version of PF Changs (they own it ), but its all good!

Oh lord...hah hah...it's lightyears different.

I've got hardwood floors, an attic, and an actual (in the ground) basement. It's friggin' awesome. I've even got a yard and will have a garden again this summer. I'm so excited.

Don...look out for some more good salsa! Here we go again (once I get the garden in, that is).

Oh and...98 more posts to go!

Maybe I'll actually make you my good guacamole one day... Nothing beats homemade salsa though... Do you put a lot of cilantro in it???

I called to see if they run any discounts on any certain night of the week - nope. However he said they have a coupon in the Mint Magazine for buy one get one free. I tried their Mint's website but a search for lemongrass came up empty. I wonder if the wife has thrown ours out with the junk mail...

you can view Lemon Grass' menu online: http://www.mylemongrass.com/sushimenu.html
