I've tried two newish restaurants in the past three days. Both were excellent... I'm no BOR so my reviews will be short and sweet.
Jen and Little Things invited me to breakfast on Friday at Chow. Unfortunately, Little Things was sick and couldn't meet us so Jen and I had a quiet breakfast. They brought out some pastries which were flaky and filled with gooey goodness (one had apples, the other a lemon filling). Jen ordered the eggs bene and I got the fruit stuffed French toast which was oh so good but I could only finish half of it. When I went back with my husband and friends this morning, I had the eggs bene while the hubster had Chorizo with Eggs. While the eggs bene wasn't as good as The Vic's, it was a close second best. My husband proclaimed this our Sunday breakfast place (which switches btw McKay, Pancake House and The Vic). The only downer was the waitress kept switching accents (she went from southern to British to normal and was quite annoying) and our French pressed coffee was lukewarm. Next time I'm trying Savory Bacon and Thyme Biscuits with gravy or the English Breakfast. My husband said he's going to try Huevos Rancheros. I am going to have to try lunch soon (a bummer since I work on the eastside of town).
For my work birthday lunch we went to The Summit. The service was slow but the portions were huge for the price. I had the hot roast beef with the BEST fries in Bend. You read that right -- move over Village Grill, Summit has the best fries. My husband could only eat half of his burger it was that huge. Must try again!
The Grammy's are on tonight. Wilco is up for best rock album and the Vegas odds are not good....I'm still hoping for a win but they're up against some heavy hitters.
Off to make meatloaf. MEATLOAF SANDWICHES! (anyone want to meet for lunch this week, let me know)

I'll meet for lunch.......i have a 45 min lunch the new hrs that I work.
I'll meet for lunch. I hear you're looking for my true identity anyhow.
I have a question about your meal at Chow, you mention that they brought out pastries, is that part of the meal? I wonder if that is only for breakfast. I went to Chow around lunch time and they didn't bring out any pastries. The owner emailed and asked how they were. I simply said that I didn't get any. Hmmmm.
I'm writing my summary of The Summit now for posting later this week (cell phone photos only...stupid memory card).
My meal was good but I'll have to go back for that burger!

I'm thinking a blogger meet up at The Blacksmith. I think Jen and I are going to plan it. You should come. Or a road trip to Baker City.
And yes, the pastries were given at breakfast.
