The Opa! Opa! Report
We got a hot tip (from the folks at Bearded Lady Buttons) yesterday that the new East Sacramento eatery Opa! Opa! is giving out free food weekdays 11:30-2:30, until their opening on Wednesday 3/15. So we went by yesterday to check it out. We were, indeed, given free food, which was quite good. We got a hummus appetizer, salad sampler (orzo, taboulei and cucumber/tomato salad), roasted veggies, a falafel and a gyro. The food is super. It's more of a lunch place than I had expected, kind of like Jack's Urban Eats -- although I would definitely go by there for a casual dinner. Sadly, I'm not sure there is any flaming cheese (saganaki) despite the name of the restaurant. Only time will tell.
P.S. The falafel made us think of Ben. ¶ 5:40 PM

Free food? You guys are totally bums. There's this other place that gives out free food over on North B Street. It must be pretty good, because there's always a crowd. Thought you'd like to know. ;-P
And falafel makes me think of Bill O'Reilly (no offense, Ben).

Well, Carl, you have the misfortune of not knowing Ben -- and also the misfortune of being far too familiar with Bill O'Reilly.
