Starving Artists
Sunday, February 13, 2005
Erika and I went out last nite for dinner at Starving Artists, a new restaurant in downtown Ferndale. It is next door to Angel's Cafe and has a total of 9 tables. The food was great except that 2 of the entrees Erika wanted were out. They had been busy all nite and we didnt go until 8:30pm. I guess you can look at it that everything is fresh, rather than an Applebees or any other chain restaurant. They have a liquor license and their wine list was decent. Prices were between $15 and $22 per entree and portions were good. Starving Artists has art work for sale, some of it prints and others local artisans works. We bought a print for the kitchen, it was only $30, the frame itself must have cost close to that. There are a few new restaurants in Ferndale, there is a French and a small crepe house. If you are looking for a new place to check out, I highly recommend Starving Artists and if they are too busy go next door to Angel's Cafe.
BTW, bought the Nirvana boxset at Costo today, its a 3 disc 1 dvd set and very good. If anyone would like a copy let me know. You can't beat the price at Costco, it was $8 cheaper than Amazon.com which usually has the best deals. While we are on the topic of music, I just found New Order's latest cd, its very good, not as guitar based as Get Ready but not total synth pop.
Now that I have finally organized my mp3s, its time to start backing them up, glad that the imac has a dvd burner or I would be here for the next 2 years. You can fit 4.4 gigs of data on each dvd and it takes approximately 14 minutes to burn.
