House Beautiful

Ernie and Fe Ann took me out to dinner in Palo Alto tonight. We ate at The Brahma Bull on California Avenue. Neither Ernie, Fe Ann, or Jason (?), who accompanied them, had ever eaten Indian food before. It was a success.

Afterwards, we headed northward to the city. The plan: Sno-Drift‘s Friday weekly, House Beautiful. I hadn’t been there before.

The club is smallish, but not bad, atmosphere-wise. Getting on the dancefloor was a tad annoying, particularly as the place filled up. No matter what I did, there were always twenty or thirty people pushing past me all at the same time. Such is the nature of night clubs.

The music was pretty good, bordering a bit on the mainstream, but going very deep quite a bit. It was sweet. I’m not sure how often I’ll come back, but the clientele is pretty and the crowd thins out a bit after two. Overall, a good outing.

Thanks, Ernie and Fe Ann, for dinner! I get to buy next time, y’all.
