Boke Bowl #3
Nov 23rd, 2010 by theculinaryaddict
Okay, its official our next boke bowl dinner will be next Monday, November 29th at the Cruzroom 2338 Ne Alberta form 6:30-10:30 (corner of 24th and Alberta). We are psyched and honored to cater Genoa and Accanto's private first year Anniversary Party from 5-6:30, then it is game on.
To better accommodate overflow, patrons will enter through the temporarily covered patio. The Cruzroom folks are setting up a bar, seating, and we'll have the menu available if there is a wait or, I suppose, you can eat right there. We're going to keep the menu relatively the same with a few minor adjustments. However, you can accessorize your ramen bowl with fried chicken, a slow poached egg, and pork belly so there are numerous combinations for your liking.
Here is the menu as it presently sits:

Recent 12-Step Meeting Quote: "Your only as sick as your secrets"
-Chris K has decided to take a leap of faith and check into rehab. I am so psyched for him. He is a great guy that who has a wonderful life ahead of him. Our whole crew will have his back.
-Tamer, the rock of the line, and the hottest guy in our crew, has taken a job in the Bahamas for the winter. He has been part of this from the start and will be sincerely missed, however, we plan on him coming back.
-The good news is Angela Favre (ex chef at Cafe Mingo and Violetta) will be filling in for Tamer. Angela 'aka sporty spice' and I worked together back in the day at Bluehour. I am REALLY looking forward to working with her again.
