After what I would refer to as a long first two weeks of 2008, today I found myself at work running from meeting to meeting, wondering where my day went.  I was in need of a drink, dinner and good company.  At six, I forced myself away from my desk knowing that my Goli (my little terrier) was patiently waiting for his evening walk.  I arrived home, walked him and met up with my board Chair, Dina Cervantes, and continued on some pending projects.  We met at Smooth’s for dinner and noticed on the table a gold business card-sized flyer that said,


“Tim Grobaty of the Press Telegram is having a ‘Best French Fry in Long Beach’ contest.  Please contact him at [email protected] and vote for Smooths.” 

 

In the spirit of elections and running effective campaigns, I give Smooth’s two thumbs up for encouraging its customers to vote for Smooth’s fries.  More importantly, I applaud them for encouraging its customers to exercise their right to vote.


The question is:  Does Smooths serve the best French fry in Long Beach?  What do you Long Beach Post readers think?  Send me your comments and don’t forget to email Tim at  [email protected] or call the “What’s hot! French Fry! Hotline” at 562-499-1300 by Friday.
