Turkish food was on deck this week at the Anatolian Table in Rocklin. They only serve beer and wine, so half of us met up early at the Melting Pot (just across the strip mall), for some very strong, if pricey, martinis.

There was some gratuitous hot roding around in the Smart Car that was just added to the Thursday Drunks family. And we found out you can totally get people in the "trunk" area. Two-seater indeed.

When we finally made our way to our final destination, we found it pretty empty, so no need for reservations. With a group of 8 we usually get a long table and then only talk the half of the group you are sitting next to. So, it was refreshing to get a square table - they just made one for us. And we could all talk! Very nice of them.

The entire menu looked yummy, so it was hard to choose. We had baked mushrooms with cheese, don't know what kind, but it was white, melty, salty and delicious. Also had the feta, olives and tomato appetizer. Very simple, but good.

The rest of our order was all over the place. Chicken in yogurt, shaved meat, salad & lentil soup, kebabs - everyone seemed to like their food a lot. Robot GoBen swears he had the best Turkish Tea ever!

I had chicken over cubes of bread and yogurt. It was very flavorful and apparently it didn't want to stay on my plate, because one piece of bread shot itself at TheJenny.
