Placenter: Oh My Gogi

Food truck time! Most Saturday nights are spent at the cousins house watching some 'new' movie. And then it gets late. And I get hungry. And I always want to eat something but big poppa is tired and just wants to go home and sleep. But this night he gave in to my wanting to try Oh My Gogi since they make camp next to brian o'neill's and home is nearby. We ordered some tacos and the gogi fries that were smothered with spicy pork and their special spicy sauce. So i guess anything that is mixed with mayo is then deemed special? The fries were super greasy because of the combination. I ended up mostly eating the spicy pork. The tacos were good. Maybe a bit too spicy with the jalapenos. I'm weak sauce! I'm also not a fan of corn tortillas. The tacos were still pretty tasty overall. I want some now. No. I want some spicy pork. I'm thinking I might be getting some yori yori for dinner tomorrow night.

Musik Mundi: Jes Hudak

Jes Hudak
Album: Platinum Hit Season One
Song: It's You

That's right! Another Jes Hudak song! This one is big poppa's favorite and i really like it too. On Platinum Hit however, the judges (Jewel, Kara Dioguardi) trashed her song. Okay that's harsh. But they didn't like it enough to put her on the BOTTOM. Say what? I wasn't in town to watch this episode but big poppa said there was no way the other songs were better. What peeves me about this show is that these 'experts' are really going by the lyrics. It's always about the melody for me. It's what catches and captivates you to a song. Who cares what the song is about! I'm really bad a remembering the lyrics to a song cos most of the time, it's just white noise to me. I'm listening to the music. The melody. The instrumentals. And I always go find piano music or guitar tabs for the songs I like but never get around to pounding it out. Ugh. Stupid judges. Jewel has mos def lost some credibility in my book. I guess I shouldn't be so rash cos I'm sure there are other people out there who may have actually liked the other songs.

Trippin': Washington D.C. - National Mall

Some fotos from the National Mall area. We would have wandered around and took more fotos but it was RAINING. Last weekend, Miss flower child stated that my trips that i take without big poppa are bad luck for me. I think she might be on to something.

Restaurant: Crawfish and Noodles

10613 Bellaire Blvd
Houston, TX 77072

Crawfish and Noodles is one of big poppa's fave places to get his crawfish fix. People either like it here or they don't. To each their own crawfish. Either way, the consensus is that the cousins make it the best but the clean up after a crawfish boil ain't no joke. I don't eat crawfish but I eat my fair share of their super yummy asian garlic honey wings. Delish! The wings are itty bitty though. My other must order items are the thai basil fried rice, cajun fries and if someone else will help me eat it i will order the goi ga. Man. I'm craving some of their wings right now. I did notice after having dim sum at kim son today that they will be closed 8/1-8/15. Pooey. Now that crawfish season is over, I wonder if the chicken wings will get bigger?
