We are regulars to a Vietnamese place down the street. The guy always
knows what we're gonna order. The wife gets lemon grass chicken. My son
gets garlic chicken. I show my face there and the owner says "Chicken
Wing!" I guess that's what he knows me as. What can I say, it's great
chicken wings.

My son took me to a VT restaurant that he favors. It's kind of a
hole-in-the-wall, although that's the way most VT joints are. There was
a hen and a line of baby chicks strolling around in the kitchen. Damn,
you can't get more authentic than that!
