To get ready for this Friday's First Friday gallery walk downtown, I'm looking at last Friday's pictures from a stroll around the Grand Arts Center.

Friday night @ After
We decided to check out the new diner on Manchester, After. I had a lot of fun. I'm not saying the food was perfect or anything like that. I'm just saying I had a really good time. To be fair, I'm sure they've never had a party of nine at 7:30 on a Friday night before. Their crowd shows up later, after the bars start closing. (One of the 4 Purdue grads at the table mentioned West Lafayette's XXX Diner, but that's another story.) Anyway, Julie's mac & cheese was wonderful, and my patty melt w/ fries was great. Maybe Julie will give you the details of the great meatloaf debacle - followed by the icy Icelandic cod, the cheerfully denied water, and the forgotten omelet. I'm really just here for the pictures.
Every scrap of mac & cheese cheerfully disappeared.
Here's our 9 scoop sundae, reassembled. Our waitress, realizing how difficult it would be to build an appetizing 10 scoop sundae, offered to break it up into individual bowls for us.

Parks!
Julie & stopped for a stroll around Lafayette Square Park on our way home last night. I thought St. Louis had something like 15 or 16 parks in the city limits, not counting the little plazas downtown. I just checked the Parks Division Website. The list of all 105 city parks was pretty impressive.
After we left Lafayette Square we visited the brand new Noodles & Co in Hampton Village. As part of their grand opening, they were running a fund raiser for Francis Park, another city favorite, and one of the four parks we can walk to from our house. The noodles were good, and the crowd was non-stop. Here's hoping they raised some serious cash for Francis.
P.S.: The torn rotator cuff is mending. The head cold is fading with every annoying cough.
