Friday night I got a late start to my swimming, so I was extra hungry by the time I got home. Michael, Jeremy and I went over to the Laughing Planet Cafe<\/a> for dinner.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I got the Bean and Cheese burrito and made it a deluxe with sour cream and guacamole.I also got a pint of the Ninkasi Tricerahops<\/a> beer.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>It was a really good beer! I liked it a lot. Which is surprising because the bartender said it was the hoppiest beer they had on tap.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Michael and I split an order of chips and salsa while we waited for the burritos.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The burritos are VERY messy. There’s a guide at every table on how to eat them. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The burrito was awesome. Stuffed with brown rice, cilantro, chopped onions and tomatoes, sour cream, guacamole, pinto beans and cheese.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I really can’t stress enough how amazing their burritos are. The beer was excellent too. Much better than the beer I’d have later in the night, but more later.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Tricerahops!<\/p><\/div>\n

After Laughing Planet we went over to the Brooklyn Park Pub.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I’d never been there before but I used to live in that general area. I’m surprised I never gave it a try.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Michael’s been there a lot. Apparently they have a “Whiskey Club” with a card and everything. Michael found his tasting card in the file and tried a new whiskey.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/a>I stuck with beer. I’m such a light weight, the last thing I need is to start mixing things!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Their selection of beer made me chuckle. Granted, it was a whiskey bar, so I get that…but really? Their “light” kind of beer was “Bud Lite”? Too funny. I stuck with the Full Sail Lupulin. I’d never heard of it but I usually like the pale ales.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Full Sail Lupulin - Nay<\/p><\/div>\n

It was way more bitter than my tastes like. I definitely preferred the first beer of the night over the Full Sail.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Ninkasi Tricerahops - Yay<\/p><\/div>\n

And in typical Portland fashion, there was some guy with a computer in the bar using the WiFi. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>It had been a long week and a very long day so we called it an early night and were home about 11pm. Michael and Jeremy stayed up for a few hours more playing zombie games on the Wii and I passed out. I was exhausted and those two beers hit me like a train! What can I say? I’m a total light weight (read: cheap date).<\/p>\n
