Theme Park means park food.  Disney World is just for kids.  And Disney sommelier?  Well, that’s just an oxymoron, right?  You wouldn’t be alone if you thought so, but you’d better think again.

On Monday, I went out to Los Feliz and had lunch with my brother at Niko Niko on Vermont.

The lighting was a bit infuriating, but no doubt about it, the seaweed was delish. Thank goodness for Photoshop.

And going even further back in time…

I went out for Fosselman’s with some friends on Sunday night. I had an olde tyme soda and ’scream. A had the choc. dipped strawberry. And T, bless him, tore through the monster pictured above. Hot fudgey boat of happiness.
