About The Recess Room

Answer Submission Form for The Recess Room

One fateful day three decades ago, five boys picked up a game of handball during school recess on a Fountain Valley playground. They grew up together, became life-long friends and pursued their own ambitions. But they shared a deep love for their hometown and dreamed of one day opening a restaurant together where they could share good food, good drinks and reminisce about good times. The Recess Room is their childhood dream come to life.

Everyone survived the holiday weekend earthquakes, and most importantly, no bottles of alcohol on any Recess Room shelves were lost to the tremors. Huzzah!

King Trivia players REALLY had things shaking tonight. Aged in Wood held a good lead from the get go, only to have that lead grow and grow thanks to a Hawaii double-down and their knowledge on TV pets and British jargon. Shaking Off Parkinsons (a funny AND relevant team name!) played it cool and discreet until the very last round, when they shocked everyone with a 20-point double down and sailed into first place!

Ava's Minions (sans Ava) and Thirsty Pretzels (sans pretzels) were fighting to go home with ANYTHING they could get their hands on tonight, since first and second place weren't options, and Aged In Wood held off on their Guess Who? answer so they could be absolutely sure Octavia Spencer was the one to score them a free appetizer. But Ava's Minions, betrayed by Reese Witherspoon in Round 4, also threw Hail Marys on British slang, Terminator movie titles, and our UN Security Council friends -- but to no avail.

Revenge of the Home Team was just happy to be not stuck at home with food poisoning. NOT from the Recess Room, let's make that clear! 🙂
