Yesterday was a classic SoCal day. Temps nice in the low 70s, slight breeze from the Ocean keeping standing in the sun bearable. So my sister, her husband, and my niece and I decided to head down to the Grilled Cheese Inviational http://grilledcheeseinvitational.com/ near China Town. We took the Metro (yeah Bill!) to and from, which we were very happy to do as the parking near this park was non-existent. Turns out SisKatie had a friend who competed with their jalapeno & bacon poppers between bread sandwich - I don't know how they fared out as soooo many people showed up it took another lady Nat 1.5 hours just to get in, let alone get to the cometition to cheer on their friend. The above photo is from the Metro station looking North back towards Pasadena and you can see the line if you look really close! The other photo is at the fence of the GSI looking back towards the Metro station...yikes!
Since it was such a long line and we were very hungry...we went to Phillipe's instead. A short half mile walk back past the metro station, only to be met with another 45 minute line filled with other disgruntled GSI patrons! Regardless - nothing beats a great double-dip beef sandwich with hot mustard, coleslaw, and pie!
Cheers!
