So this weekend, in lieu of attending any large scale cons in the US, a bunch of us got together to celebrate the 45th anniversary of Dr. Who (and, unsuspectingly, VIctory in Iraq day).

Dinner was a Korean BBQ nearby, also close to the new Toronto Trek hotel. We joked at least once "we have to hurry or we'll miss the masquerade". We loved

Korean BBQ is very interesting. Marinated meats are brought to your table and you cook them on a grill built into your table. Very tasty. We got the all you can eat platter, eschewing the ox tongue, ox liver, and squid.Yes, yes, we are all weak.

Cynra was not enthused with the idea. That is a particularly mild way of putting it. She has a look she makes sometime when she is not thrilled with an idea, like she'd just bitten into a bit of cilantro in her ice cream (her non-cilatro flavoured ice cream, mind you). For the initial bit, she sat at her spot eating her rice like a monk. Eventually she warmed up to the idea, and was tearing through a panoply of meats like a seasoned pro.

I have no idea how they get those grills cleand off, but at the end the amount of carbonized meat n' marinade on there was impressive. MOST impressive.

Afterwards, we headed to Pixel Barrel world HQ to watch some Dr. Who, drink some cocoa and eat some cake. We watched Rememberance of the Daleks, which was apparently the final Dr. Who before the great drought, and the Five Doctors, which was really "Three Doctors and a Guy in a Wig". We also played a bit of Wii Fit, which was surprisingly enjoyable. I've got to get me one of those.

By the time the festivities wrapped, got [livejournal.com profile] redeem147 home, and returned to Mill-Town ourselves, it was 4 a.m., which is late for old people.
