Don’t bother ringin’ it up; it’s for a duck

Kudos to the lovely and talented Anne Linehan, who hooked me — and a whole bunch of fellow conservative Houston bloggers — up with free food at Wolfgang Puck Express this weekend. It was nice to catch up with everyone: Anne’s husband and rugrats, Evan, Sedosi, Kevin and Callie, Chris and Christy Elam, and the Rorschach family. It was nice to prove to everyone that Diane is actually a real person, despite what Callie may think.

WP Express is a combination fast-food/sit-down experience, sort of like Cafe Express. The menu features salads, pizzas, sandwiches, pasta dishes, etc., in addition to beer and wine. This was a brand-new store, in the Town Center area of Sugar Land, and Saturday’s meal was a dry run, which gets the staff trained and broken in before paying customers arrive. It’s a win-win scenario: realistic training for the waiters and cooks, and free food for Matt.

I had the meatloaf, which was served atop a bed of deliciously creamy, garlicky mashed potatoes, with a side of grilled veggies. The meatloaf was delicious. I have to agree with Rorschach:

And I have to tell you, meatloaf is not normally one of my favorite foods, but this stuff you’d loose a finger if you tried to take it away from me.

Pretty much. Diane had a chicken pesto sandwich, which was really good.

Overall, a great place with very friendly service. And it was free. Hells yeah.
