Is Ginza still down the street? That was once a thriving Asian market. Then Far East opened and before long Ginza was selling flowers.

Ginza got the really good, thin Japanese style won ton and egg roll wrappers. The won tons made great steamed jiaozi / gyoza. Far East was just a lot cheaper.

I don't think Ginza has been there for 30 years.

They were there in 2007. The Asian food store hasn't been there for maybe 40 years?

You mean we're not?  I thought we already were.

Ha, I was just at Douglas Park in RI a couple weeks ago watching baseball.  Holy shit, that neighborhood.  Lol

I'm a bit out in the sticks, where I stay most of the time.  I don't know that I go to Rock Island much at all.  Too old for the bar scene.  Rock Island doesn't have much to offer me, nor does Davenport.  The new 74 bridge is going to be nice, though.

FYI Schnucks has CAB chuck eye and Delmonico (the cut between the ribeye proper and the chuck eye)

They aren’t the cheapest but the cuts are pretty nice.

Overcooked a tri-tip by a bit, but sandwiches with leftovers sliced thin were just fine.


Still hiding behind innuendo and practicing the art of ommision.

I somehow almost always overcook tri tip too. If 97 sees this I already know what he’s gonna say.
