Houston, We Have a Winner, Part Ii

(I had some problems with this post - don't know if it was too many words or what)

I was still walking around when I saw a 'WichCraft restaurant. I had been to one on the day I got lost which was my first day. I had continued to think about the delicious salad I had there. I told Dani about the salad and she told me Tom Colocchio owns the chain. The salad was called an Organic Arugula which had chickpeas and Parmesan cheese with a lemon vinaigrette. I got one to go and had it for dinner last night.

I caught a cab and while he was driving down 9th, I saw someone who looked like Nate Berkus. I told the cab driver I thought we had just driven by Nate Berkus and he agreed. So, I asked the cabbie to go around the block so I could get a photo. All I could think was that it will be a great photo for me blog! :). Nate was standing in front of an apt bldg with 3 other people trying to hail a cab. I am in a cab talking to him and he is asking if I am getting out. LOL. I said no and that we had gone around the block to get his photo. I told him I had been at his show last week.

I guess that is it for the day.

  1. I'm trying to figure out who Nate Berkus is. Is he the one with the European shoulder bag, aka man-purse? Or the guy in front wearing silly bands and mismatched clothes? :) LOL at the cabbie being a sport. What's been the average cab fare for you?

  2. The guy in front with the mismatched clothes. I would say 10-15 with tip.
