The Steelhead Diner had been recommended by his friend Brian months ago and we were excited to check it out. The owner is originally from New Orleans, so there was an influence of that on the menu. The mussels were enormous with a delicious butter sauce. B seemed to enjoy the white fish he ordered, but I was so consumed with the delicious steak that I had, done medium rare with blue cheese on it. Amazing. The ginger lemon drop was also delicious, with Yazi Ginger vodka and limoncello. Great attentive service, a engaged waitstaff and solid portions. I would definitely recommend it for a night out where you're looking for something special with a more relaxed atmosphere.
Neither of us had seen Janeane Garofalo live, so that was a total treat for me. She looks fantastic and of course had a lot to say on the political front, but I was happy that she had plenty of non-political material as well. I wouldn't bill her as a straight up stand-up comedian (nor do I think she views herself in that way), more just a great personality who you're thrilled to listen to for a few hours.
