November 15, 2015. Madison, Ms. Sunday Brunch.

The tradition is good.  Most Sunday  we meet the family at 11:15 for Brunch.   They attend early church while we are lazy.  Then we all meet for brunch.  The girls enjoy dining out and we like to see the girls dressed up.  But most importantly, we visit and we talk.

Today we learned about the initiation service for the sorority that Kate is joining.   Tomorrow, she will receive her pin and now will be officially a member.  And we talked about the dangerous place that Universities have become.  Amazing but true.

Today we enjoyed our brunch at the Thai restaurant I stumbled on last week with Doreen.   Surin of Thailand is the proper name.  It is located on Old Canton Road in Jackson.  When we arrived just after 11:00, we were the first customers but when we left at 12:30, the place was full.   They must be doing something right.  While we were there, a man in chef's jacket stopped by our table to ask about our food, which we said was great.  When we asked if he was the head cook, he told us that he is a consulting chef, who travels all over North America to evaluate menus and food taste.   Who would have thought you could make your living traveling around the country evaluating restaurants?   He is independent and has been hired by the owner of Surin of Thailand to broaden the range of food, to make the Thai food more palatable to Americans.   For instance, we ordered the special appetizer, which was a waffle with chicken and seasonings on top.  It was delicious.  The consulting chef said that it was one of the new items he had introduced to the restaurant.

I just hope the visiting consultant does not mess up the food.  It already was wonderful.
