52 in 52 : Pommes Frites

Finally on to #3 in my journey. Pommes Frites is a nice little shop on one of the main thoroughfaires in downtown, specializing in fish 'n' chips and catering mostly to students. I hadn't been in there in quite awhile, mainly because the stuff i love gives me bad breathe. But hey, no one to kiss today so why worry about it? They make excellent fish 'n' chips and have a variety of dipping sauces, but today i opted for some of their lighter fare. I guess they're expanding their menu because a lunchtime of grease just doesn't sound as good during the summer. So i ordered what i saw out front on the board -- spicy rice bowl with tofu and teriyaki sauce. Great vegetables, excellent sauce, and the best crispy-on-the-outside tofu i've ever had. The nice lady behind the counter even sprinkled peanuts on mine because she thought it would be better that way (and it was).

Pictured here is part of the atmosphere - paintings by a local artist. Thick colors on solid wood. And since you probably can't read the price in this little pict... that one's only $10. Guess someone's desperate for rent money this month, because they're really nice paintings. Might have to go back and get one for the office.
