Clam Strips

After two years, clam strips are back at Red Robin. You don’t even KNOW how exciting this is. Next to eating them dock side at Ivar’s in Seattle, this is my favorite way to eat one of my favorite foods.

Monday nights (mom’s night out, as you know) center around french fries and Red Robin and our most awesome bartender. However, they also used to center around clam strips. Twas our meal of choice if we hadn’t had time to eat before we escaped from the house. And then, devastating though it was, they stopped carrying them. We briefly debated switching to a new place because we weren’t particularly fond of the rest of the menu. But the fries were good. And the staff rocks. And the drinks are strong.

And finally, finally! after all these months of whining and reminding the staff that though we are ordering chicken strips tonight, we’d much rather have clam strips, I got the beloved message on facebook from the most awesome bartender.

“ladies, clam strips are back Monday”

Happy dance!!

Monday was blissful and wonderful all day, for both us moms, as we anticipated our beloved clam strips.

We each had our own order. It was wonderful. The perfect compliment to our stoli’s.

Yummy.
