Capital Grill Hartford CT.

Those brussel sprouts top right were INSANE.

Filet. Lobster Mac + Cheese. Mash+Asparagus.

Went to the Capital Grill out here on Long Island.
I had the calarmari and lobster mac which were good as hell. I forgot what kind of steak I had but it was all good as hell. The service was on point too.

any good places to eat in sacramento? moving there this summer. 

anything but seafood, lol

Check out Squeeze inn for burgers.
Leatherby's for ice cream. The toasted almond...

 

[fenixconnexion.]

Baohaus is cool, peep avy
I'd recommend going there to grab a bite, the portions are kinda small anyways so it wont fill you up so you can also go to other places too like the halal guys restaurant around the corner

Filipinos! Come through with your Chicken, pineapple, macaroni salad recipes.

 

[cakeddout]

Do not. I repeat do not put pineapple in your macaroni salad. That **** is the worse and you can make a bomb salad with out it.

Chicken
Shredded carrots
Onions
Macaroni
Pepper
Super basic but you can add more depending on what it is

 

[Roderick Kingsley]

chicken macaroni salad -- basically mix everything together :

- 1 pound of elbow macaroni, al dente

- thinly shredded chicken, any part

- 1/2 cup easily melted cheese (i use velveeta from the philippines), shredded or cubed (i prefer the former)

- garlic, onion, salt, pepper to taste. i like to add ample garlic and onion

- julienned carrots, blanched for ~15 secs

- i don't like raisins so i don't put any

- half a cup of condensed milk + 1.5 cups light mayo for the dressing

my fruit salad recipe (if youre interested):

- 3/4 block of boxed philadelphia cream cheese, room temperature (not traditional at all, but this is my secret ingredient)

- 1 z can table cream (found in asian markets, i use nestle brand)

- 1/2 can condensed milk (i don't like it too sweet)

- 1 large can filipino fruit cocktail (i use del monte brand) -- i don't remember the size of the can i use, but it's like 6-8 inches in height. i'm guessing ~32 ounces?

- 2 cans marashino cherries (i like to use ALOT), drained and stems removed

- 2 fuji apples, peeled and cubed

- 2 small cans mandarin oranges

- 1.5 tsp vanilla extract

procedure:

- drain fruit cocktail, marashino cherries, and mandarin oranges very well. like, toss the hell out of the contents in the strainer.

- using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese until fluffy. ~5 minutes

- put in vanilla extract, condensed milk, and table cream. beat thoroughly, scraping the sides of the mixing bowl to fully incorporate. important: mix until there are no more lumps

- place all the fruits and cream cheese dressing into a large bowl and fold to distribute the dressing well. refrigerate for several hours before serving

Luckily, Elk Grove is building a lot. So you'll have some good options out there.

Is your job in that area or in Downtown?

Downtown. Can't wait!

 

[Fozz]

Downtown. Can't wait!

Have you considered finding a spot downtown? West Sac's Bridge District have some new apartments too.

IMO, I just find Elk Grove a commute into downtown, since everyone is headed towards that direction in the morning.

Either way, enjoy! You're moving into the area with a lot going on. Sacramento is definitely better than it was 5 years ago.
