Dinner at Thai Andaman Restaurant Yesterday

Continuing our Sunday Gastronomic Adventure, Ditas and I once again went to our favorite Thai restaurant, Andaman located at Newel and S Carolina Blvd, WC. To our surprise, Five THD Residents also came for dinner just before we were ready to leave, but I had a few minutes to chat and Ditas was able to take photo of me and the Group ( above photo).    

Here are the other photos of our Dinner- We had 2 appetizers-Soft Shell Crabs, Sweet Potato empanadas, Eggplant, Tofu and mixed vegetables ( Vegetarian) and Jasmine Rice. The best part of our simple meal was the Dessert- Sweet Mangoes with Sticky Rice.

I told the five THD Ladies, that if they like Japanese Food, they should try Tanoshi ๐Ÿ’œlocated at Ignacio Valley and Oak Park Rd. I mentioned this to Anne, the driver of the group.    

Finally, here are five major news items making the rounds today:

  1. President Trump said the U.S. Navy will blockade ships entering or leaving the Strait of Hormuz amid the escalating standoff with Iran.

  2. A federal judge dismissed Trump’s defamation lawsuit against The Wall Street Journal over the alleged Epstein birthday note.

  3. New violence in the U.S. included a fatal shooting at a Chick-fil-A in New Jersey and another shooting in Virginia Beach that left multiple people injured.

  4. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman was targeted in a second reported attack near his San Francisco home, leading to more arrests.

  5. Rory McIlroy won the Masters again, becoming part of a very small group of repeat champions at Augusta.

Other notable headlines today include an Artemis moon mission celebration, new Trump-related images and comments drawing backlash, and an ethics investigation into Rep. Eric Swalwell.
