Grapevine Cafe Redux
Faithful Reader Mark sent me this e-mail yesterday (he really is faithful; he reads my blog as well as my print review on the weekend):
Who did you tick off? Your review was almost listed in the classifieds. Also, if the Sun will not print a picture of food in color, suggest to the editor not to print one.
Some pages are designated color and some aren't, depending on the press run, and that sometimes changes last minute. But it also occurred to me I could put the color photo of the Grapevine Cafe on my blog if I wanted to -- as well as more photos that didn't appear in the paper.

The house appetizer platter was excellent. Also ordered calamari, which turned out to be extremely greasy. Scraped off the batter to get to the flesh itself.
Flipped a coin to decide between lamb shanks and leg of lamb. I lost.
The leg of lamb was not good at all. The meat was cooked to the point where it was way too dry and there was too much gristle in the portion I was served.
Very disappointed in that.
Next time, I will order the braised shanks.
