The Medicinal Effects of Drunken Noodles

 
Wednesday, August 22, 2012 - Medicinal Effects of Drunken Noodles

I’m feeling deliriously happy after a late lunch with friends at Elephant Jumps, a terrific little Thai place.  Drunken noodles – yum – my new anti-depressant.  Has anyone ever studied their medicinal effects?  If you’re in northern Virginia, you’ll find the restaurant on Gallows Road (best not to think about the reason for the street name), just north of Route 50.

I would gladly spend the rest of the afternoon hunkered down at home, rooting out bits of garlic from between my teeth, but we’re due in Reston shortly.  A friend’s government contracting company has taken off in the past year or so.  They recently moved into new and larger quarters, and they’re celebrating with a big open house.  Congratulations, Gary!  Eleanor, Gary’s wife, said there would be “heavy” hors d’oeuvres at the party.  I wonder if they’ll have any drunken noodles.
