Spring Eating

I am posting about eating again. I think this may say something about my psyche...

It's spring, which means it rains less, which means we could wait outside in the sunny warmth for dinner at Vij's. Jason and I are not foodies, nor are we socialites, but we have wanted to eat this Vancouver hot spot for a while. The restaurant is smallish with only about 20 tables and no reservations, so everyone comes early and waits outside to be seated first. We arrived about a half hour before opening and missed the first seating by one table. Not a bad thing as you get free appetizers while you wait.

We had a delicious wine from Argentina with our meals of saag paneer (indian cheese in spinach sauce) with dal (lentils) and beef shortribs. I have to say that dessert of warm dumplings (like donuts) in cardamon sauce with hot chai was the best. We came home and started a movie and both promptly feel asleep with too full bellies. Yum.
