Paddlers who Lunch | Redwood City Dragon Boat

DieselFish goes out to lunch…again

“This croissant looks buttery,” said Victor. “Can we get some more napkins?”

After practice on Saturday, the team went to Pamplemousse Patisserie Et Café in downtown Redwood City for lunch. We go to Pamplemousse when we want to reward ourselves after a decent workout. The French-style café offers rich savory dishes including crispy croque monsieur sandwiches and cheesy quiches. Sometimes, we even order their baked goods. (Victor loved his almond croissant.) Just because we paddle like savages doesn’t mean that we have to eat like them.

The team always goes out for meals together after practices. These meals allow us to bond and relax after our exciting workouts. Sometimes, I look forward to the meals as much as the practices.
