Einstein Wrap House

Einstein Wrap House on Urbanspoon Tiny place with bar seating. Staff are friendly but maybe not so used to chatty folks instead of those who just order and go.

Nothing too special here except decent/not-great-but-nothing-wrong-with-it CHEAP eats: For $6.50, you can get a wrap that is as big as two cheap burgers. You can choose the toppings, including "everything", which will give you a decent amount of veggie in your meaty wrap but which will also cool down the meat in your wrap so don't expect a piping hot meal here.

Sorry to say, they are also somewhat lousy at wrapping OR maybe we asked for "everything" in our wrap and the filling was too fat for the wrap to be tight enough. The result was a mess trying to eat it UNLESS you asked for it to be cut in half.

TIP: Ask for your wrap to be cut in half. They will put it under a panini grill briefly. When I asked why, I was told that it helps keep the wrap together when and after they cut it.
Once your wrap is cut in half, you get to start eating from the middle and it holds together nicely until the very end, which will still probably fall apart on you, so try not to eat these things on the go or without a paper bag to catch the bits. You can probably get away with carefully peeling off the aluminum foil into a "plate" but it can be tricky. Again, eat this sitting down!

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 3

A picture from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. I can't remember why I had this couple in the picture, but I do vaguely remember this to be in London, on the first official day of the tour group getting together. Their insistence on my helping them take a picture caused the three of us to be late getting back to the bus. The local tour guide had a "rule" about lateness, that we had to buy chocolate to share with everyone. As it turned out, later in the trip, on at least two occasions, we were stuck on the highway on either a long commute or a traffic jam, and I had chocolate and chocolate-covered marzipan to share. About the chocolate-covered marzipan -- Apparently we were in Austria just as they were celebrating Mozart's birthday with special marzipans wrapped in foil with the famous composer's picture. I'm pretty sure it was Mirabell Mozartkugeln . Anyway, there were enough to go around the en

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 10

The last of my pictures (at least the ones that survived the cheesy disposable cameras) from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. Below is the obligatory group photo. Not sure everyone's in it, actually. I'm pretty sure this one was taken by the tour director, Mike Scrimshire as I'm in the back row, on the right side.

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 9

More assorted couples on my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. An American couple who joked about being from "the land of the giants" -- and with good reason, because both of them were really tall! A cute Jewish mother-daughter pair who ducked out part-way to divert to Israel. I vaguely remember the issue of the daughter being an orthodox Jew was highlighted in France when, to make things easy, she just declared herself vegetarian for the wait staff. I also remember there was some logistics error in France because our party size was way underestimated or simply relayed incorrectly, and there was a shortage of food at dinner. Dessert came as an unopened can of yogurt. It did not seem like they tried to make it up to us later, either. Plus there was smoking every which way in France, and I had a helluva time with that. We were also in a hotel that seemed tucked away in the burbs, and not walking distance from anythin
