ZendCon – The Food Briefing

ZendCon has been enjoyable and, interestingly, relaxing. It’s a developer heavy conference and I have a pretty flexible schedule, but I’ve managed to meet with several folks and friends of RedMonk, e.g., some RIA Weekly recording with Andi Gutmans and Mike Potter, with a curling bonus!

Also, I’ve had as few gastronomic delights, to wit:

Jeff Haynie Gets a Big, Fried Fish

Jeff and Matt of Appcelerator took me out to dinner last night up to Sutro’s. While I didn’t get the mega fish above (I got the scallops with shredded pork on top and chicken liver pâté – damn good!), it was clearly the delight of the table. Interestingly enough, I’d visited the Sutro bathhouse ruins a last year.

Next up, on recommendation of Sean Carlson, I visited Tres Potrillos this morning for breakfast:

Huevos con Chorizo at Tres Potrillos

That’s a massive breakfast, even by Texas standards – I didn’t eat it all by far. That said, if you’re around the Santa Clara convention center, I’d recommend checking Tres Potrillos out: it’ll be better than what you can get at the Hyatt.
