So I'm currently staying in the heart of Silicon Valley in the US, North Sunnyvale to be precise. It's pretty grim I have to say, it's like living in the middle of a large industrial estate. There's nothing of significance within walking distance of the hotel and I've been working all hours for the last week to help out with a deadline that was supposed to be for this morning.
So instead of working sixteen hour days and eating take-a-ways for dinner and wondering what the nightlife is like here, I decided to go out for dinner. I headed for downtown Mountain View and Castro Street, where I'd been told there was plenty of restaurants to choose from. I ended up in a Thai place that had a veggie menu, it was nice if unspectacular.
I then popped round the corner to the Tied House Café & Brewery where I partook of a some ale. In particular their Amber and their Oatmeal Stout. The Amber was nice, the Oatmeal Stout had too much roasted malt in it and for me wasn't smooth enough. If I'm ever back this way, I'll go back and sample some of their other beers that's for sure.
