Not too surprisingly, since it was the only thing open in the area (except a Starbucks, and they don't have full dinners!) Blue Pearl at lunchtime was pretty busy. I was wondering whether they would make any concession to Christmas, but they didn't; there were a few items I don't usually see there, but in at least one case I know it's something they save for weekends: a delightful dish of shrimp and pineapple in a cream sauce that I wish was available during the week. The only other things I noticed that aren't there normally were ribs and a kind of fried fish, but I suspect they are just normal extras on weekends when their price goes up. (That's why I don't usually go there on weekends.) The cabbage soup seemed to have much more meat than usual, though. (And that is a definite plus. I like that soup, but I'm enough of a carnivore that more meat than usual is only an improvement on a good thing!)
