I celebrated early by enjoying the soft shell crab at the Broken Record last Thursday. It was fantastic

Glad to hear the food's still chow-worthy at Broken Record.

Melanie - that marvelous-looking thing was only $1.75? Amazing.

While the pintxo is piled high, the base is a small slice of baguette. But even so, this was a great bargain for $1.75. I have many other photos and will post a full report, just have to find the time to upload my photos. Or maybe go there another time. Found out that the Gilroy Lizarran is a franchise, and couldn't help thinking about the current controversy up in Windsor over someone who wants to open a new Denny's in town. How I wish somebody would bring Lizarran to town instead of Denny's or another Olive Garden!
Fast, casual, delicious & cheap. Service quite good too and eager to please. Lizarran is considering making green sangria for St Paddy's day.
