Two of the Lunch Bunch, Linda and I are meeting up with Sherm and Cranky in Los Banos at the Wool Growers Basque Restaurant.

Tuesday is the one day that pig's feet are served along with the rest of the meal. And today is a Tuesday.

There is no menu just your choice of the main course, which is always lamb chops, pork chops or baked chicken. Today there is one additional choice fried fish.
Soup, beans and bread


Salad is just ice berg lettuce from the nearby Salinas Valley with a very tasty dressing



French fries, pig's feet in tomato sauce, empty plate of pig's feet in the salad dressing
They also served a bowl of lamb stew

On pig's feet day you need to keep your soup bowl to toss the bones.
This is my soup bowl


Linda decides to hold up the remains of the dishes after we have finished eating.

The aftermath of lunch


On the way home right at the entrance to Hwy 99 we spot an interesting panhandler. Actually we had seen him hours earlier on our way to Los Banos. But this time we are stopped by the signal light and take his photo.
An honest pan handler
