"I ate a delicious New Year's Eve late lunch yesterday [12-31-2021] at Pat and Gracie's [at 340 E. Gay St. in downtown Columbus].One previous lunchtime [perhaps one year ago], I had stopped at that Pat and Gracie's [I am only occasionally in that neighborhood] hoping to be able to eat lunch there. They had been so crowded at that moment that I could barely fit into the front door so I decided to return on a less-crowded day; yesterday ended up being that less-crowded day.I had previously studied the Pat and Gracie's menu on-line and had already selected the following item: Peruvian Chicken 16.79]: whole half chicken marinated in olive oil, lime juice, garlic, cumin, paprika then oven-roasted until tender, juicy, and crisp-skinned; served with a spicy cilantro jalapeno green sauce on a bed of house made mashed potatoes and asparagus.Rather than being handed a physical menu after I had arrived at my table, I was given a three-inch-square laminated QR code to scan with my smartphone. I ordered my food by speaking my choice out loud to the server [rather than touching anything on my smartphone as I had briefly imagined would happen].That location never has asparagus in stock [at least according to my server]; broccoli had been an acceptable substitute for asparagus.After I had ordered my food, I walked around the restaurant briefly outside and inside so that I would be able to take several pictures to post to Google Maps; my food was brought to my table before I had finished taking pictures.This is actually my first time [I have now posted more than 1,500 photographs to Google Maps] when I have taken a photograph of my plate of food before starting to eat it.The Peruvian Chicken had been absolutely delicious; the mashed potatoes had been definitely real in that a spoon inserted into those mashed potatoes would stand up without falling over.A half chicken had been far more food than I would be able to eat in one meal so my server provided to me a box and a plastic bag so that I would be able to take the second half of my Peruvian Chicken home and then eat it at home within the next few days.I definitely plan to return to Pat and Gracie's when I am in that neighborhood."
