Nick and I just got back from lunch at Armadillo Willy's, a rib joint
here in Silicon Valley, where we always order the Kids' Ribs plate --
a reasonable amount of food for a reasonable price. Not only do they
allow us non-kids to order the kid-sized portion, they throw in an
adult-sized drink for free because they like us.

The Downtown Waterfront Marriott in Portland, Oregon got really, really
sticky about that. My roommate at Orycon and I ended up ordering
miniature cheeseburgers in the sports bar and splitting the plate, and
even enduring the TV. I thought the little restaurants and snack places
nearby would be where we ate, but no, it's downtown - they close after
lunch on Friday.
We also ate in the Hospitality Suite and room parties. You can guess how
many snacks we had as opposed to meals!
Hospitality suites are great. Raw celery, raw broccoli.
(And if you go to a con I'm at and all that's been consumed in the Con
Suite, leaving only the carrots and whatever else comes on those
vegetable trays, go ahead and blame me.)
