Fettuccine carbonara with Cremini mushrooms. I didn't have pancetta so just diced up a bunch of smoked bacon, no regrets. :lol:

The chicken stew is not good, that bowl is going back. That's why the kitchen here has earned no stars from Michelin.

Supper was roast beef and Yorkshire pudding and it was terrible too. I ate the cake, one bite of the pudding, a little of the beef, and all the mashed potato and gravy, left the frozen mixed veg. Tomorrow I'm going to try to get my friend to bring me a bahn mi sub after work.

If I'm still here (debatable). The Hun has their buffet Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. Serbian Club has the fish and chip special on Friday but I could get a burger or pizza or something.
They just wheeled a lady into the next space who's on NPO so they can fix (I think a broken leg)(edit; sounds like a hip) in the morning. She's getting the same surgeon I had. It's a busy place

Beef vegetable soup (no salt, but edible), broccoli-raisin salad (not very good either, but I ate it (including all 3 raisins)). Chicken salad sandwich (not very good, but edible), dish of pineapple chunks had to go back; not sure where they sourced that but it was a mistake. One of the better lunches I've had here, which is just plain sad. At least I won't have to have food brought in tonight, no matter what's for supper. There are probably people who think it's pretty good, which makes me ask just where and what have they been eating?
