Me and My Hugo (Together, at Last!)

(photo by me)

Since people have been asking, here's a photo with me and my Hugo. We're having breakfast. If I look bored, it's because the darn thing is NOT a conversationalist.

How many things can you identify in the photo? And what could I possibly be eating that requires all of those things?

While we're on the subject of food, someone had asked in the comments of my WFC 2009 t0-do post what I had found for food options in San Jose. There are a lot. And there are a lot near the hotel. There are a few options I recommend:
  • Yelp! San Jose. Works great since it has a map and you can center it on the hotel to see how close stuff is to it. Gives reviews (which may or may not be impartial) but also hours, payment options, links to restaurant sites, etc.
  • Google Maps. Actually very similar to Yelp! but no reviews. Also, Yelp! lets you choose cuisines while Google is just a power search.
  • SanJose.com. It's not impartial, but it has nice write-ups and (for the most part) good links to the restaurant sites.
From those things (and to be honest, mostly Yelp!) I found more than enough dining options.

Sriracha sauce and Aunt Jemima? Aunt Jemima AND Mrs Butterworth's?
Please. Get some real maple syrup.
Seriously, what do you eat with these two flavors? Thai cooking has a bunch of hot & sweet, although maple syrup is not the sweet.

I assume that's yogurt in the little plastic tub, and OJ, and coffee in the EV mug.

Pancakes, yogurt, coffee, orange juice, hot sauce, and maple syrup that Marc disagrees with its provenance... Hmm, possibly sausages for the hot sauce, but maybe not. Maybe you put the hot sauce on the hotcakes or the yogurt. Although it could be for eggs.

Anyway, I'm betting the hot sauce goes on some form of breakfast protein.

I can see that this tops what I eat on French toast. :D Now I wish an all-night diner was nearby!

I think your coffee mug is telling me something. So subliminal.

If you haven't seen it, Julie Rose has a local's view of the restaurants nearby.
