I can’t remember the last time I laughed so much. I used to go to Pub Quizzes a lot, especially in my single girl days. My good friend Sam and I made the rounds checking out the different pub quizzes and they are so much fun. We may never come in first place, but we’ve been in second place a few times. It’s a fun way to spend a weeknight evening and it’s relatively cheap.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nWednesday night after work, Michael and I met up with my friend Sam and his friend Jeremy on SE Belmont to grab a bite to eat first. Can you believe that Michael has never done pub quiz before?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nWe went to Laughing Planet Burrito<\/a>.\u00a0 I got a pint of the Laurelwood Workhorse IPA<\/a> (yum) and a bean and cheese burrito.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI really liked the IPA. It was a smooth, crisp beer. My burrito was fantastic too. Brown ride, pinto beans, guacamole, sour cream and lots of salsa:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nMy burrito was about 700 calories according to their website. I’m sure the guacamole and sour cream was not included in that, but I was good for the day on calories. I devoured my burrito, feeling happy and satisfied.\u00a0 After a quickie dinner, we walked up the block to Hall of Records<\/a>–an old record store turned pub on SE Belmont. It was a small, cramped restaurant but had a cool vibe about it. Next time: we’ll get there extra early. We found a seat in the back for the four of us.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI tried a sample of their summer ale and did not like it. It tasted like perfume.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI ended up getting a pint of Terminal Gravity IPA <\/a>and loved it. It was strong and tasty and it took me all night to finish that one glass.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI love pub quiz! It’s so much fun. It’s less about winning and more about just hanging out with friends and laughing. We did really well the first two rounds. Then the questions got tricky.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI was pretty stoked about some of the questions I got right for our team!<\/p>\n
