It Lives...
I'm rather excited.
It's a bit of unexpected excitement actually. Tim and I were pleased to attend a Meet & Greet for Candidate for County Commissioner Josh Parker at my brother's salon. It was a nice evening... some great conversation, a little wine, a little food, and confirmation that Josh is the guy for me to vote for. I have four or five votes, but it appears that the best ploy is to vote just for one. And I'm voting for fresh new blood on the Durham County Commissioners.
The thing that I'm even more excited about, though, is that driving home, deciding between a snack at Chipotle or Cosmic Cantina, we passed the old Bread & Kabob. I've been mourning that establishment's closing for about four or so years now... but tonight, the lights were on, and someone was home!
Could it be? Now called 1013 West Main, the family I grew to love back in the 90's has re-opened their establishment. It just re-opened last night.
I was overwhelmed to see the familiar faces and to experience the personalized service that made the Bread & Kabob one of my all time favorite eateries. Their menu is not at all the same--it's more of a mainstream restaurant, but the friendly touches are still evident. And the food was darn good, too!
Tim and I sampled sever appetizers and found them really tasty. We had their sampler platter, a chicken quesadilla, and their tomato bisque soup. The sampler was tasty, but the quesadilla was fabulous, and the soup was truly inspired. And the margarita was divine!
I can't wait to hit there again... and the promise they'll soon bring back some of the dishes that made the B&K do fabulous... including that incredible cilantro sauce!
It's a good thing.
