As part of the previous renovations post, I checked up on Charles’ Southern Style Kitchen. To my surprise I saw the gates plastered with bright orange SEIZED signs.  There will be a lot of disappointed all you can eat patrons who have made the long trek up there.

Last Friday, Priscilla and I decided to get some fried chicken at New Caporal Fried Chicken. We asked others in the lab if they wanted to go, but for some reason they didn't want to go.
