Well, first of all, don't even TRY to park at the Blue Boutique or you will have to reckon with a man with greasy hair and glasses. He will ask you to move. You will. He will explain that The Blue Boutique is very busy on Friday nights. You understand.
When you are in the Dodo you'll notice that a lot of the servers have recent spray tans; you never would have realized this except that you partook of a spray tan yourself and are now intimately aware of a certain Cheeto tone of skin. Speaking of skin, they were showing a lot of it even though it is only in the high 50s. We get excited about warm weather here in Utah.
Also, The Dodo has a very old crowd. We decided. Also rich. Also Mormon. How can you tell? No one in the whole restaurant was drinking wine. Not one person. But people were eating lots of desserts. Yessiree. Different vibe than say Trio, or Ruth's Diner. A salad off the secret menu is the best--The Dirty Bird. Worth a try.
It takes a long time to get your food which is okay because that gives you plenty of time to update Charles on the state of the union (i.e. your children, your disillusionment with education, your desire to blow this popsicle stand and move to Africa) and gives you another chance to complain about the server's bad-tan.
All in all you get what you want: a turkey, avocado salad with the Dodo's perfect BBQ sauce and a night with the hon.

"The Dodo has a very old crowd." That pinched! So you wouldn't recommend a spray tan?
I just adore you, Erica!
