Friday? Hmmm, no "Matlock" on Fridays. I will see what I can do. Wait, free? Free mai tai!...damn the Matlock, full speed ahead. Now, that's a free mai tai per person, not one for all to share, right?
And pu-pu's, too! Crab Rangoon is super good terrific stuff.

 Check out this awesome punch bowl!
Since dogbytes' food photo journalism has been such a hit, I thought I'd follow suit by showing you Hanford's meal.
Here's the SF Trader Vic's double New York steak:
Here's the baby vegetables and steak potatoes that come with it:
And here's a tasty Navy Grog:
I don't think I'm able to take pictures at the SF Trader Vic's without taking at least one of this guy, I'm not sure why that is:
