Does anyone in Contra Costa County remember . . .
. . . Lou's Chef-Burger, right across from Diablo Valley College? Breakfast - ham, eggs, potatoes, toast and coffee - was $3 in the late 70s, but what made Lou's special was their exceptional quality combined with generous portions. I wonder if it's still around.
Aye, aye, Captain Crab for dinner, anyone?
Hi, Recently I've been venturing for good lunch/dinner deal (recent post http://www.network54.com/Forum/131774/thread/1274480595/Good+lunch+deal+in+LA%2C+anyone-+I%27ll+start+this+thread+with+Sushi+Gen ...) and was inspired by Daos recent post of Fried Fo...
DRMW #1 choice for next GTG...
Hi Anthony, I guess we have to go to Captain Crab at the next GTG so that you all can do the field test of the ladies, LOL! P4: if you look at the 2nd picture, you can kinda see one of the waitresses picture ATM
Hmmm...
I haven't dined at this joint. I have dined at The Indian and witnessed all the distractions. Certainly interesting that they put all the food in plastic bags. I haven't seen that before!
Time to visit LA?
Hi Patrick, You're due for LA visit . There're a few of this type of restaurants in San Gabriel Valley area, but IMO Captain Crab is the best so far, as it's not as greasy as the other places. ATM
Missing LA PuristS (and the food) very much!
I am definitely overdue for a LA visit. I even still think about Katsuya every now and then! And Din Tai Fung... Will be coming soon. Hopefully.
You show me this
...and I'm committed to Italian food with Dr. No this evening. Thanks.... grumble... grumble
Hope you've fun with Dr. No :)
Hi Mrsnak, How did your dinner with Dr. No goes? I look forward to your food pictures and wrist shot ATM
No photos from last night's ultra mini GTG
This is the best I can do. Ottavio's in Camarillo. Reliable Italian. Had a small deluxe pizza, Dr. No had a nice sort of Shrimp pasta dish, Frank had the Chicken Parmesan, and we shared a tasty Calamari Wore my Robert Lighton Hudson. Dr. No wore his nice ...
If it was any more 'mini' . . .
. . . it would've been a drive thru at In 'n Out ;-) . . .
and just me attending...

:) Can't wait for more seafood this weekend...
... It's long weekend here this week, and I'll start it with some bbq tomorrow
So tempting to see this right before dinner time
Nice pics ATM, all that fresh spicy seafood looks delicious! And it looks like a lot of fun with this casual eating using your bare hands and no utensils. And did you say the eye candy is better than 'Indian'? LOL definitely got to make plans to have dinn...
Time to drive up to San Gabriel :)
Start making your reservation ED-209 and have a feast and 'desserts' ... Just don't get into too much trouble with the ladies, LOL. ATM

That's what I love about the internet . . .
. . . instant answers to the most obscure questions! www.yelp.com When the Stones tour next year, I'm gonna catch the show in Oakland and stop by Chef Burger on the way in . . .
there is a chain called the Broiling Crab
that is the similar type of menu.. great place for beer+seafood and a ball game..but bad for the cholestrol count.. enjoyed the experience but found the salt too much to take a few hours later... and be mindful of the wait at Broiling Crab...crazy wait ti...
Yes, a few chains of Broiling Crab at SGV...
Hi Ocwatching, There's a few in San Gabriel Valley. I've been to the one at Valley & Garfield. IMO, the food there is a bit oily, a tad too much butter. And the wait on the weekend sure is long Have a good weekend, ATM
My only question is...
...when are you taking me???!!! It all looks marvelous! I'm foaming at the mouth! We must go together soon! Agreed? Thanks (or maybe not!) for the awesome pictures! I'm so hungry right now! Cheers, Daos
Anytime Daos!
Hi Daos, I'm ready when you are! It's best to go for early dinner on last Wed of the month. 50% off deal is hard to resist ATM
I like Captain Crab much more than Boiling Crab.
Hi, ATM, Captain Crab used to have some of the best fish and chips I've had anywhere, and their fried oysters...yum! The fish in the fried fish fillet was soooo moist and tender... But oh my what a mess! The batter looks a little dark in your pic, I hope ...
Fish & chips...
Hi Thomas, Thanks for the tips=I got to try out their fish & chips and fried oyster at the end of this month then . The batter color is darker, mainly from my picture... I got to upgrade my blackberry, LOL. Regards, ATM
