1. We are in prime Annie’s time right now.

2. The chili oil is supercharged.

3. Seriously consider a Wednesday or Thursday visit.

4. “I don’t order dessert at restaurants.” OK, so you don’t have to share this plate of fried bananas with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce big enough to serve four. Your friends will split the $5 tab for a true work of art, and you can sit there and feel sad. 

5. While you’re there, pick up a banh mi to go.

6. Bottom line: 

• + 2 appetizers 
• + 3 entrees 
• + 3 pints of good beer 
• + 1 fried banana dessert
• + 1 takeout banh mi for lunch tomorrow 
• + 1 healthy tip for the urbane, mustachioed waiter who can discuss Lemony Snicket with your 8-year-old
