The juniper roasted samon and wild rice sounds really good. I have found that the Metropolitan Museum of Fine Art in New York has a wonderful, diverse cafe. If you have the opportunity to go to the museum, plan to have lunch there, too. For New York, the price is reasonable.

I don’t know if they originated either chili fries or bison burgers. Would they have found a way to grind buffalo meatinto burger? Would they have done so anyway? I doubt it.

I went back to the museum for lunch yesterday and had the juniper roasted salmon, cold, wild rice, and green beans. Fine meal. It was a gourmet meal, in my opinion. The rice tasted like it was coated with some kind of vinaigratte (sp?) dressing. The salmon was superb. absolutely delicious

Mel B’s not the only jealous one. Reading this reminded me of how long it’s been since I’ve been to a good museum. The food sounded good too; I like bison burgers.

I wonder, though, if Native Americans were the originators of chili fries. Personally, I prefer chili cheese fries so loaded down I have to eat them with a fork.

All the museums and sites in Washington are free of charge. That’s what makes it such a cheap vacation. Except where you really get stung is on food. The restaurants are expensive. I paid almost thirteen dollars for my meal at the American Indian Museum. I’ve uploaded my Ontario vacation photos and will probably write about it first of next week.

I’m a little jealous that you have all that access to so many cultural and historical treasures! The museum sounded pretty.
Do you get free admission too? And that’s quite a deal — free rides to work. I’d be all over that!
Where I live, the public transportation is so-so, but I also live in a much smaller city. And the buses don’t go after midnight, which is when I get off work. I’d love to be able to not drive my car every day, considering our poor air quality, but I guess I don’t have a choice for now. The best thing I do is car pool to work with my roommate most days.
