: : Alarming Crustacean @ Red Lobster : :

Oh yeah, when I mean that it was eating at Alarming Crustacean, I wasn’t kidding. Eating lobster was an experience at the Red Lobster Restaurant at Lubbock. My boss’ wife wanted to have some of their lobsters and their huge snowshoe crab. And seriously, we polish them off as well as 2 bottles of wine between 4 people.

So, here’s the video for you all to enjoy. Again, the auto-focus is being a pain but just reinforces the fact that I need to get myself a flashlight or videolight for the handycam.

You know, it’s easier than I expected it to be and making videos has been a fun process so far. It’s not as boring as I thought it would be although it also still needs time to prepare it. But I need to find a source for music tracks that are royalty free or CC free.

Link to Red Lobster site. Funny thing about this website is that there Store Locator is not working at all or I’m not putting in the right searches. Then again, if you put in the search for Texas, nothing shows up anyway. Going to drop them a mail after this.

: : Biiiiigggg steaks @ Cagle Steaks : :

Yep, big steaks alright. I’m getting used to using Windows Movie Maker now but have to look for some better music pieces to attach on to give better video viewing experience.

Here’s the link over at Youtube.com. I sure am going to miss this fast internet connection.

And it’s still a pain that YouTube videos can’t be embedded into Blogger posts yet. Oh well.

: : Shogun of Japan, Hibachi Steak House : :

Hi all,

I’m trying putting up YouTube.com videos. I got myself a Sony HDD Handycam DCR-SR62 and have been having fun with it the past few days. The only problem is that Blogger doesn’t allow YouTube embedded videos until it’s link up with Google Accounts. Or so it’s been notified since Sept 2006. So, at the moment, it’s just a link to the relevant video page.

I”m currently on a business trip to Lubbock, Texas, USA. And here are some videos of the Japanese Steak House we went to, known as Shogun.

The front of the restaurant. It was very quaint. Plus, it has been 4-5 days since I last ate rice so the sight of rice was a pleasure. An added bonus was that they either used Thai or Japanese small grain rice. Yummy.

The chef’s introduction. It’s a bit blurry because there’s not enough light coming from the handycam so was having a tough time to focus on a post.

Cooking Fried Rice. Klak klak klak klak. ^_^

Meat cooking time. By then, we were extremely hungry and couldn’t wait for the food to come out.

And finally, the veggie bit that is getting cooked.
