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.

QUIZ RECAP

Today was a major Recess Room King Trivia milestone with Keit of Highway Star on an amazing winning streak of 9 wins in a row!!! Will he make it for 10???

The veteran returning teams were up for the challenge to try to upseat our reigning king! 

Keit did win his 10th trivia night in a row and I am looking to establish our own unique trophy for the weekly winner. 

Keit had a previous trivia trophy pic as a reference. We will try to make it even more spectactular!!

Ava's Minions did well with Veronica and a family friend. Implication started with 6 but then Diego and Bridget went to the OC Fair. Tough to compete with the lure of the annual fair! All in all, the remaining foursome came in 2nd place just 5 points shy of doing a tie breaker with Highway Star! Yikes!! So close. There is those Double or Nothing rounds to gamble on when possible.

I am back still spiriting my ohana spirit after 4 fun days and nights at Tiki Oasis in San Diego. I posted my weekend pic with a hairy primate! Bartender Joe is a longtime Tiki fan too and he drove his motorcycle to it with his 10 rolled up tiki shirts in his backpack. Easy rider!

Round 1 of General Knowledge involved the Jungle Cruise,  the letter A, a classic sitcom, the city of Brotherly Love, India and chocolate chip cookies! 

Round 2 was the full color picture round of Growing Pains to identify the "coming of age" movies. I like Keit's hint about the correct title for one of the pics  'Count the candles for the title!'

Round 3 was the Superfood for Thought round about superfoods and philosophy. Yes Highway Star, that philosophy degree comes in handy.  Lots of fun facts involving chia, Aristole, Curcumin, Soren Kieregaard, quinoa  and kintsugi. 

Round 4 for Guess Who was a music artist who knows how to play all the right keys and sings in A minor. Hint hint. This girl is on fire!

Round 5 for Find the Connection was 9 questions involving Dodge pick ups, Twins, Drake, Annie Oakley, US Virgin islands, a rangoon, MGM studios, Malory, a popular touring band plus the 10th question of what do they all have in common. As a Libra always seeking balance, I would love to tell you but you have to be here to know!!

The Round 6 handout was the Genus IQ with no missing "I" in the title as this round involved genes to match the animal to its scientific name. So don't have a 'bos taurus'! Go ride a 'equus caballas'. Go swimming with a 'delphinus delphis' and come play with us next Wednesday!!

Finally Round 7 was less complicated than in weeks gone by. Tonight's question was 'Second in Command' to name the 10 most recent US Vice Presidents. 

Our August theme for the last week of the month is....The 80s!! We cover the music  movies and more. Please wear  your favourite 80s band tshirt or dress as your favorite person from the 80s for Wed. August 25th (just 4 months til Christmas countdown...I will probably play some Christmas music here and there!!)

Matt of Thirsty Pretzels took the night off but his two family members did great getting 3rd place. 

Thank you to all the owners of the Recess Room for supporting our weekly trivia night. Big shout out to last night's staff of Roy, John, Joe, David, Hope, Sam, Ivan and the hardworking kitchen. 

See you all next Wednesday.
