Lunch Blogging is back!

With all this excitement about the new iPhone, I have almost been tempted to get one. Wait, no I haven’t. I am happy with my PC version and I am signed on for like 8 more years with Verizon anyway. Jared was an early iphone adopter though, and just upgraded to the new software, which provided him with many more fun applications. That brings me to the point of this post: One of said applications is Urban spoon, which pinpoints your location and then randomly selects a nearby restaurant. The best part of this is it selects a new one when you shake it and makes a neat sound, but I digress.

This application is perfect for my lunch blogging pursuit because it comes up with random restaurants you would otherwise never think to visit.  After a few test shakes, we made the call to do to whatever restaurant it said next. Quick shake and Dove Vivi was selected. Urbanspoon said it was cheap, had pizza and vegetarian options. Perfect! So we drove over to 28th and Glisan but alas, they did not actually serve lunch. One strike for Urbanspoon.

Since we were on that corner though, we decided to hit up Laurelthurst. I got a somewhat epic grilled cheese with tomato and onion ($5.50 and it came with a salad) and Jared got a vegan breakfast burrito (breakfast is served until three.) All in all, a wonderful lunch, no thanks to the iPhone.

In other news I was going to blog about going to Gabriel Park, but I did that for Fuel instead so go check that out there.

Here’s one picture from Gabriel though. This is Raddick. His dad shreds at skateboarding and I’m sure someday he will too.
