that_guy_zach and I went over to the Hofbräuhaus for dinner. We started out with a half liter each of the Adulterator Doppelbock. Then both of us ordered the Kassler Rippchen -- what Zach refers to as a "porkgasm." I had a Bavarian creme puff -- a Windbeutel ("windbag"). We had just ordered our second half liters when yechezkiel joined us. He went for the pretzel sandwich. The band was mediocre, but the people dancing were a hoot. After it got too noisy at Hofbräuhaus, we went over to Barnes & Noble to cruise for books. Then came Coldstone Creamery, to finish off the evening with ice cream. Truly, a delightful evening all the way around. I needed that.
