Gourmet Detective

Went to a Mystery Dinner Theatre last night, to celebrate Happy's birthday. Not to be confused with "happy birthday", although I think he did enjoy himself ...

There was a bit of a mix-up at first. When Duh made the reservation, it was set up that each of us would be calling to give credit card info to pay for our tickets. When we got there last night, they only had one name on the list ... and we were a group of eight. So, after some discussion and a little frustration, they were able to set up another table for us, and - fortunately - had enough food to be able to fix dinners for everyone. The food was good (although the portions were a bit small) - I had the tri-tip with mashed potatoes and veggies, with a salad to start and a sliver (and I do mean a "sliver") of cheesecake for dessert. The show itself was fun and entertaining - murder mystery, of course, and there was quite a bit of audience participation.

If you've never been to a mystery dinner, I recommend it ... although the price seemed a bit steep, we all had a blast. I'd go again ...
