When you are staying in an area you don’t know, and you don’t know exactly what you feel like eating, it can sometimes be hard to decide where to go to eat. So if you aren’t careful you go to someplace safe and eat something ordinary and known. That either means a comfort food, or something that is sustenance but not especially satisfying.
We were in Excelsior Springs last night with just that dilemma. Here is a list of things that I looked at (Which one of these would you choose):

Creational and relational type Renaissance man (writer, singer, thinker) holding to C.S Lewis's credo that if you follow truth originality takes care of itself, (anyway, originality is so yesterday, anyway.) That I have my wonderful wife Jasini is proof enough for me that life isn't fair. If it was fair I wouldn't have her, and instead she is my most faithful example that I am blessed beyond measure. My two adult children are the same unmerited blessing to me. We should all be thankful life is not fair but blessed.
