Mandarin House - La Jolla & CBGS's

We cruised over to Windansea a few weeks ago, and drove by the old Mandarin House. Looking so cool and old school, with the big Foo Dogs our front, of course I want to go.  Inside was a fancy room, with big round booth, with the high backs, the waiters are in ties.  So far so good.. then BAM! friggin flat screen TVs on each wall, playing basketball. The worker dudes would stop and watch and as they walked by.  I rationalized this to gambling, perhaps they all had big money riding on this.  We had MuShu Port and House Fried Rice and, welp, not as good as Mary Anns.  Even the PuPu Platter has an unknown object on it that was "meh". The whole experience was over priced, to boot.

We picked up CBGB's on the way home, why it cracked me up to see Ron Weasley as Cheetah Crome, you may want to just enjoy the trailer, only.... :(
