Vinny T’s
We had a coupon for Vinny T’s … 10 dollars if we order… something. I don’t know how much we needed to order, or if there’s any special condition, but Ricky, Mo, and I decided we’d check it out the day after our final exam was done.
The atmosphere in Vinny T was certainly nice ~ but not really that Italian I suppose. Well… I don’t know how a restaurant could become more Italian, but… it didn’t shock me with its Italian-ness. Server was nice, especially when I asked, “does the Calamari come with the head?!?!?” I love the head on fried squid ~ I don’t really know why, but the head is like the best part of the entire squid. When you chew it, it just… feel very… erm… I don’t know. It’s just better than the rings.
So, I think he said they do have the tentacles included, so I ordered the Rhode Island Style Calamari for like a couple dollar more. I think this was a mistake, cause I sure didn’t know Rhode Islanders like their fried stuff basted in hot sauce. It wasn’t nasty, but I would’ve enjoyed it much more if it was just plain o… calamari.
The main meal that I got was Chicken Carciofi. What can I say… it’s chicken. It was tender… and tasted like chicken. It wasn’t as good as the chicken grandma makes, but it’s alright I suppose. I love grandma’s chicken… her fried chicken is just so ****ing good, it’s criminal. You wouldn’t think a Chinese Grandma would know how to fry up chicken; but damn, not only is her fried chicken good, she … I don’t know how many recipes of chicken she got, but well… yeah, they’re all good. Anyway, … Chicken Carciofi wasn’t all that bad, and they cooked it well; so it’s all good.
Overall, was a pleasant experience except as we were coming home… heh… we had to jump over a fence cause we went down the wrong street. I remember I bought a TSA approved lock, and that I had my jacket on… boy, I think the guys were freaking out when I started taking off my jackets while I’m perched on top of the fence.
