Presidents Day Roast Beef Celebration

President's Day 2011: what's more American than drinking Budweisers and eating roast beef sandwiches for lunch? Probably blowing something up-- but I'm sure eating roast beef and drinking is at least in the top five.

As far as I know, he didn't have a moustache.

Steve, MW and I hadn't planned on a thematically relevant eating excursion, but it worked out when the picture of George Washington above stared down at us and our roast beef. George Washington founded a nation while slaughtering the British and eating roast beef (he also saved children, but not British children).



Brennan & Carr in Sheepshead Bay on the southern face of Brooklyn is full of little bits of presidential history. It's been around for thirteen presidencies. Yes, I counted in my head. Thank you very much B.A. in history.
