ME: 8/1/07 a long awaited lunch

We decided to spend the afternoon at the aquarium (I'll skip the details of the decision making process, but we sat in Betsy's car in the shade for quite a while). We went some backroads and actually got to where we needed to be and then found two free parking spots nearly side by side. Wow. What cool luck. Then we walked down the hill towards the aquarium. We were getting really hungry. We decided to go to the visitor's center and ask for suggestions. The very nice man gave us lots of choices and then showed us the book of menus. We decided on Tony's. It was right back up the hill where we had come from. We walked past the street with our cars on it and finally found Tony's. It was 2:30 when we finally sat down. The weather was getting very muggy as well as being hot, so the A/C was very welcome. Oh my goodness, the food was so good. The nice man at the visitor's center had told us that Rembrandt's right next door had the best desserts in the city but by the time we finished our wonderful meal at Tony's (including both sourdough and garlic breads), we had no room. Curses, we skip dessert again.
