0:18
the circle inviting you to join me
0:21
shalyah just got a load up the book bag
0:24
with these accessories and head out
0:35
meandering about a block or so from the
0:38
original fountain which is now by the
0:41
Civic Center up to the orange Plaza some
0:45
call it I refer to it as the orange
0:46
circle where the there is a fountain
0:49
there but the original one mentioned
0:51
this before is right back there there's
0:53
a crow up there as a bird perched things
0:58
are really opening up down here Watson
1:01
now not only has take out but outdoor
1:03
seating gonna be making a turn here on
1:05
Glassell about a block away is the
1:08
location
1:08
give or take well less than a block
1:10
about a half a block in 1886 the first
1:14
bank of the city of orange occupied this
1:17
site it isn't this building per se but
1:20
it stood here on the corner even though
1:23
this building has some years on it as
1:26
well have to remember these little
1:28
benches here in the shade this side of
1:31
the road is shaded where the other ones
1:33
still kind of permeating in the sunlight
1:35
I prefer the shade really has picked up
1:39
down here in the last few weeks
1:41
everyone's coming out seems like nearly
1:44
every establishment is open for business
1:47
even tiddlywinks which was filming
1:50
location for that thing you do
1:53
it's open Orange County bus whoa gonna
1:58
stop okay now it's going it's going
2:00
through the intersection I have arrived
2:02
at the pie hole even though it says Los
2:06
Angeles which is where it started this
2:08
is orange probably 20 or 30 miles from
2:12
the first spot and they do have a lunch
2:14
combo for 9.99 any pot pie side salad
2:17
and bottle drink and a lot of seating
2:20
arrangements out front yeah more than a
2:23
few tables my game plan is not to get a
2:25
dessert I know it's it's a pie place but
2:28
they do have meals inside pies as well
2:32
as sweet I like the vibe of the building
2:34
per site obviously this was not here
2:36
when the brick structure was created
2:39
it's taken over the 177 address but it
2:42
just adds proper ambiance circles corner
2:45
zi r KL e dedicated to wally andrew
2:49
circle former side of Wally's market
2:51
from fifty to sixty one restored back in
2:54
2008
2:55
Lowell reminders everywhere oh he's
2:57
wearing a hat made out of a coffee cup
3:22
got my items what's in here have to wait
3:22
to find out what to wait long notes I'm
3:24
just gonna walk to the end of the road
3:25
and show you comfort food delivery and
3:29
take out and now seating directly in
3:32
front wait free free coffee with
3:34
purchase I did not get a free coffee I
3:36
did not inquire about that however I did
3:39
get a bottle beverage so I guess that
3:41
kind of works out I opted for a combo so
3:44
instead of a coffee I got what you'll
3:47
see changing up the plan just a bit
3:49
found a spot right here under this
3:52
marquee this has no shade but this has a
3:56
little bit of shape Moscow and bye
4:01
nice reflection here in the window can
4:05
you see my beverage I really hope this
4:07
is a twist top instead of one that you
4:09
need the the tool to it is a twist off I
4:13
could take this off now as well I need
4:16
to take the top off
4:26
I don't know I think I need to it's not
4:26
a twist-off
4:26
gotta go back over and get the proper
4:29
the proper item to remove this thing and
4:32
it didn't take long
4:33
Oh classic car alert didn't take long my
4:35
seat was commandeered over there dang
4:39
that was fast it's okay though cuz this
4:42
is now accessible to drink and I will
4:45
never complain about having to sit in
4:47
this circle proper near the fountain
4:50
beautiful learn something new constantly
4:53
and all the times I've been down here I
4:54
never realized that there was a time
4:56
capsule right here in the ground that is
4:58
not supposed to be open until the year
5:00
2000 and 73 huh must stay off of this
5:05
historic sago palm however there is a
5:08
nice shade spot right here underneath
5:10
this tree probably should have brought
5:12
some sort of blanket for the ground but
5:15
at least I got that decorative leaf leaf
5:19
there it's not a little not a bad little
5:21
spot but this is what we're dealing with
5:27
plastic cutlery keeping up with the
5:29
scheme of the theming there pi+ coffee I
5:34
didn't get either well I do get a pied
5:36
and get coffee I got an orange Fanta
5:39
which I have yet to consume yet and I
5:42
guess I did get a pie even though it's
5:43
not sweet pie it is a food pie that has
5:48
mac and cheese in in its innards well
5:53
the innards of that are mac and cheese
5:56
but I think it is know rapping oh that's
6:00
hot there's no wrapping around it no
6:01
tinfoil no sort of paper I could just go
6:05
in pull on and buy it into this but
6:07
probably should use okay my fingers
6:10
starting to jab into it I'm gonna use
6:11
the fork I spilled a little bit I have
6:12
not taken a sip of this somehow it's
6:14
knocked it over that's just I'm not I'm
6:17
very clumsy when it comes to eating oh
6:27
yeah Fanta in a bottle some say you
6:27
taste a different stream of fountain
6:29
drink versus a bottle drink versus a can
6:33
drink and I for one agree see if I can
6:36
dig down in this and see some of that
6:39
mac and cheese oh there we go yeah look
6:43
at that a mac and cheese pie not the
6:46
most cozy back placement against the
6:49
tree bark but it works my lower back is
6:52
upper back is fine lower back it's the
6:55
angle of it
6:57
I digress look at this shrouded around
7:00
the shrubs of the leaves of the salad my
7:03
first bite ever of a little get a little
7:06
pie on there a little pie topping as
7:08
well as the mac and cheese this is the
7:11
first before the circle is backed up
7:14
look we're driving by looking over here
7:16
thinking well what's some of that path
7:22
Hank
7:31
it's an interesting combination with the
7:31
top portion and the bottom four sit up
7:33
high the crunchiness of it is different
7:40
kind of almost the mac and cheese flavor
7:42
blends itself in
7:52
whoo that's one that's really what
8:02
it's a good flavor kind of difficult to
8:04
film yourself eating while leaning up
8:06
against the core basis
8:27
the outer shell almost kind of takes
8:27
away from the flavor of the mac and
8:29
cheese mac and cheese was not originally
8:32
designed to be in a pie form it's good
8:36
but it's different very different
8:48
pretty sure it's the pie crust that's
8:48
throwing me off usually there is fruit
8:51
or some other item tucked away inside of
8:53
us not not cheese classic car alert
8:57
thinking a better option it was so good
9:00
to sit at the tables in front of the pie
9:04
pie spot there are some benches over
9:08
there that are in the Sun I'm I'm kind
9:11
of weighing out the options versus shade
9:13
versus Sun versus sitting against what
9:17
I'm here
9:33
I am opting to move from there well
9:33
there's there's one there and there's
9:35
that one doesn't look too much in the
9:37
Sun the Sun has gone behind a cloud or
9:39
even better than that
9:40
found one one bench right here in front
9:43
of the fountain alright here are my
9:45
thoughts
9:46
I enjoy pie and I love mac and cheese
9:50
but in this case the combination the
9:54
dryness of what is normally a pie crust
9:57
with the creamy goodness of what I
10:02
thoroughly enjoy about mac and cheese it
10:05
doesn't mesh well for me it is a novelty
10:08
item nonetheless
10:28
like two different flavors
10:48
it's good it's not great for these taste
10:48
buds just had a nibble of the salad
10:51
pieces
10:51
goodness gracious that's good the sauce
10:54
that's on there the topping while the
10:56
dressing using the inappropriate
10:58
terminology
11:00
good I hear come a couple in a row
11:04
a lot of classic bugs
11:27
total price $9.99 for the mac and cheese
11:27
pie the salad and the bottled Fanta
11:30
which I have already I've already
11:32
finished not too bad plus tax seeing
11:36
some flower petals cast into the water
11:38
and some some coins down in there as
11:41
well as this placard that is embedded
11:45
into the concrete let me reiterate that
11:49
was a novelty item fun for the video but
11:54
a regular pie or just a side of mac and
11:58
cheese on its own accord would have
12:02
probably been a better option you got to
12:05
go with novelty it's what makes light
12:08
fun that's not a direct quote or
12:11
anything that's just something I just
12:12
off the top of my head I was thinking
