Green Grotto V: now 5x more pretentious!

Won’t actually get into SD for a few days.
It’ll be perfect weather! :sunny::thermometer:
And it’ll definitely NOT be in the 30’s or 40’s!

We have a local BBQ chain “Old Carolina Barbecue” that has had it in fountain over 10 years that we have been going there. Occasionally they have 12 packs of cans for $5 but they go fast. The 4 pack of bottles is available in a few groceries for $5-6 so I don’t often get it unless it is on sale. I’ve seen pix online of 2 liter bottles but never in person.

I’m surprised the stores don’t have it. They were making a big deal about going national a couple of years ago. Seeing the glass bottle reminded me of it. I haven’t bought any in a long time. I enjoyed it alot when I was young.

I SAW THAT, AND WAS EXCITED UNTIL I SAW IT WAS IN NC. TOO FAR AWAY. I NEED TO SAVE $ AND VACATION TIME FOR GOING BACK TO JAPAN THIS FALL.

WE ARE THINKING OF A COUPLE DAYS IN HONG KONG AND A COUPLE IN SEOUL, TOO. MIGHT AS WELL CHECK A FEW OTHER COUNTRIES OFF THE LIST!

Is it smoked?

STILL CONSIDERING COMING THIS WAY?

DID I TELL YOU ALL I GOT A LETTER LAST WEEK SAYING MY DEBIT CARD MAY HAVE BEEN COMPROMISED AGAIN? SO FRUSTRATING BUT THE STRANGEST PART IS MY BANK SAID THEY’RE SENDING A NEW CARD, THIS ONE WON’T EXPIRE UNTIL THE END OF THE MONTH, AND AS A PRECAUTION THEY LOWERED MY DAILY LIMIT AT THE ATM TO $750. WHAT?!? I DIDN’T EVEN REALIZE I COULD TAKE OUT THAT MUCH AT THE ATM! AND NOW WE HAVE TO WATCH OUR ACCOUNT CLOSELY UNTIL THE NEW CARD ARRIVES? WTH?

“Calabash” style. It’s breaded with flour and cornmeal, seasoned, then fried.

The breading is very light.
