At a friends house, or with friends at my house. 

If we are talking strictly eating out, probably my buddy's pub. Got to support the little guys. 

Yours in earnest, Jason.
Call me Ernest, or EJ or Ernie.

Bummer. I wonder if I would recognize my old stomping grounds. We talked about making a trip there this summer, but we are sure with all this madness. 

If you ever do get to this area, please get in touch.  If we don't get to play a bit of golf, we can at least have a beer or a meal.

Not sure if you and the wife have been here, but once life gets back to normal I highly recommend it.  Great food and the hot chocolate is 2nd to none.

As close at it is, we rarely get to Leesburg for dinner, but we'll keep it in mind, thanks!

Most of my favorite restaurants are offering take out, so I haven't missed out too terribly. Can't get good dim sum for takeout, though, so I'm thinking that's what I'll do.

I just had Outback for the second time since March 13 (March 24 for my birthday the day prior). Yum.

Athens Kouzzina - Greek... obviously.  We miss this place more than everywhere else.  We're friends with most of the staff and have been going there before we even lived in the Atlanta area.

Tropicana - Caribbean cuisine, which for me usually means Cuban, because I love the roasted pork, yellow rice, black beans, and plantains.

Viva Mexico - Mexican... obviously.  This is another one of our favorites that we've really missed.

Outside dining is open in Ohio. We’re eating pretzels with beer and waiting on wings to show up. Sweet bliss!

that looks delicious!

Here in CO, while restaurants for sit-down meal are open today, many are closing permanently.  I have yet to see any open near the front range.  They have take outs but none of the restaurants are open for sit-down dining.

I am not sure if it will happen anytime soon.

Not sure where you are, but apparently brewery patios opened today in Longmont. Hopefully that means restaurants are close behind.

Eberts, the restaurant at Green Valley Ranch Golf Course is open for outdoor terrace seatings.  Went there for dinner last night - first time eating out since this all started.  

But then again, what the hell do I know?

My wife and I both cook reasonably well, so we're surviving just fine.  I think we've had carry-out just twice so far, pizza once, and BBQ (ribs and brisket) the other.  Two restaurants we'll be anxious to get back to are our favorite sushi place (Hama Sushi in Herndon if anyone near me wants a recommendation) and a very interesting place called Mokomandy, which does a very interesting combination and fusion of Korean and Cajun cuisines.  To me, sushi is really only good when eaten in the restaurant, take-away isn't the same, and Mokomandy isn't open at all right now, not even for take out.

Sad news yesterday, Mokomandy is closing for good.  :angry:

I forgot about this, but last Sunday we went to our favorite Mexican restaurant. I sat there and ate chips/salsa and had a jumbo margarita. So so good.

    • Took my wedges in to get regripped and saw the local store had some leftover Pure grips, was pretty excited to see those still around. Got those put onto my wedges, I love these grips, they have such a great feel to them. Also picked up a brand new (opened and second hand) Cleveland Huntington Beach putter for a great price! About %50 of retail. It had been purchased by someone else who decided to buy a different putter and was never used. I love the feel of it.
    • I’m not sure I’m following you. My current plan is to take the bunkers out of play completely and hit something like a 6i to 130-150 range.
    • Day 139- Slow, swings with short practice club. 
    • You might want to try a can of Bar Keepers Friend. Yes, it is abrasive, so just wet a sponge and dab it on. It has oxalic acid (no bleach like "Comet" kitchen cleanser), and it works wonders on stainless steel and other metals. Try it on a small area first to see what happens.
    • Fair   My uneducated thought: the big miss is the penalty area. If you want to optimize score, missing into the bunker (likely 5) is better than missing right into the penalty (possible 6). With that, your strategy seems sound and if you hit a committed shot, you get a bunker 5% of the time, take your medicine and hopefully get a putt for par but accept bogey. You may find yourself in a penalty situation 2-3% of the time and accept the associated outcome. The vast majority of the time though you are giving yourself a good approach shot into the green.
