Lunch! Again!

[pyat]

Yesterday I have lunch with tzoq, at an interesting sushi place in the theater district. The interior of the restaurant is arranged around a kind of garden, with the booths looking out over a stone path and waterfall. This garden is built inside a sort of courtyard, with a skylight reaching to the roof of the building, so the restaurant is partially overlooked by office windows.

You know, it seems like I write often about having lunch with people. This is because I often have lunch with people! And take pictures of them, to prove that I'm not making them up.

Me: "So, I had lunch with this woman with blue hair, who pretends to be a skunk on the Internet."
Audience: "Uh huh. Sure you did."
Me: "And then I had lunch with this guy who works at a company that plants grass on factory roofs in Michigan."
Audience: "Let me guess - and then you had lunch with a singing Californian Eskimo?"
Me: "Well, no, I don't meet snobahr until June."

So, pictures.


This is tzoq's bike. It is recumbent!



This is the restaurant, looking back from our table to the entrance.


This, of course, is tzoq .

And that is all, except to note that I have a cold, and my car is getting its front brakes redone. Sigh.

Do you know who makes Tzoq's bike? I'm happy with my conventional bike right now, but you never know. Besides, it looks totally cool! And, man, that restaurant is neat. Toronto(right?) has the coolest restaurants.

I'll ask him! He is generally quite knowledgeable about bikes.

What an awesome looking restaurant! I love places like that; with a little bit of the outdoors on the inside. That bike is also very awesome; I imagine it would be easier to ride such a thing for long distances. Is that the idea?

Yup! tzoq says he can bike 8 or 9 hours continuously. Mind you, he's in very good shape.

That is SO COOL. If you wanted an actual commuting bike, that looks like it might be ideal, given a city designed for biking. I browsed the wikipedia article on them really quickly and it appears that they can't jump a curb, as there is no way to physically yank the front wheel up. That'd be a problem in my town, but dang. A recumbent trike would be an awesome way to just putter around a small town like Jonesboro.
