The hubby and I try to make a date every so often. Thanks to a Groupon coupon for 2 hours of unlimited bowling - last night was the night.
We decided to keep with the retro theme of a bowling date by eating dinner at Jerry's Diner on Thomas and 24th street. One of my favorite things in the world is fried chicken (insert Southern joke of your choosing here). I tried the honey fried chicken with corn bread and a salad. I loved every bite! (http://www.yelp.com/biz/jerrys-restaurant-phoenix) Perhaps the best part of our date was an enormous strawberry milkshake with (gulp!) real whipped cream. Our waitress added extra when she heard me tell the hubby that whipped cream was my favorite part.
After stuffing our selves with diner fare, we headed to the bowling alley over on 12th street. We didn't make the entire 2 hours of bowling that the Groupon gave us. I wouldn't think that bowling was hard work, but I was tired after hefting the 12 pound ball (usually down the gutter) for an hour and a half. The highlight was our last game where I actually beat the hubby...156/144! He's says that he let me win, but I think he is just a sore loser... the fact that he won all the other games means nothing.
Sounds like you had a great time. We have a Jerry's Diner out in LA, too. Don'tcha love Groupon?
