The Keg

This entry should’ve been written several days ago, but I just got side-tracked. My officemate and neighbors who worked on Windows Server 2003 R2 shipped earlier this week and decided to celebrate. I didn’t really ship yet, but I joined in the fun with Derek, Jeremy, Tekman, and Vani. We went to The Keg Steakhouse & Bar in Kirkland and it was a mighty fancy place. To give you a perspective how how fancy this place is, it’s rated a 9.0 while the Ruth’s Chris Steak House in Seattle is rated a 9.2. However rumor is the best, but also the most expensive steak house around here, is most definitely the Metropolitan Grill, which recieved a score of 9.7. The food was delicious, but I think steak houses have a tendancy of undercooking their meat. I ordered a medium rare prime rib, which was really delicious, but it was awfully pink. We had a great time. What was neat is that first time comers get a free shrimp cocktail appetizer and the manager himself comes to your table thanking you and asking what brings us to The Keg today. The service was awesome also. One way to tell how good the service is how many times your glass of water becomes empty. I don’t think my glass of water ever became empty that night.

Speaking of food, here’s a word of advice, DO NOT BOIL YOUR EGGS STARTING WITH BOILING WATER. I was boiling some yam tonight and halfway through, I thought I’d dump in 2 eggs so I can have boiled eggs too. BAD MISTAKE. Almost immediately upon impact with the boiling water, the eggs cracked and started leaking white goo. So yah.. that’s my advice for today.
