OT: Tigger Charged With Sex Abuse!

[Wardad]

Sorry to hear about your distress Growltigga.
I ate at Monty's Casa Vieja many a time. The place is well known for it's steak. No one I know has ordered the chicken. Did you offend the Mexican staff?

You need to spend some time in the better part of Arizona. That would be Tucson, of course.

Oops, frantically uses soldering iron to delete the name "General Woundwort" from the tip of a red hot poker, and hastily re-chisels Wardad on it.

Sorry Woundwort, I meant Wardad. I am rather dyslexic when it comes to "wubble-yew" words, and tend to lump you all together.

Wardad, I ate there twice, I had steak the first night, but after a week on steak at pretty much every tex-mex place in Phoenix (what is it about Americans assuming that all us Brits want to eat is steak!!??), I just fancied something a little different, and I had had a really good meat combo at Cooperstown the night before and thought that Monty's might be a bit more authentic.

Everything was good, but the chicken (after three requests for it to be properly re-heated, and not just nuked!) was still pinker than someone from Ohio on a mediterranean beach, and the waiter obviously really didnt like me when the nasty beer in the pitcher was warm (and no, it wasn't urine. although it sure tasted like it).

Basically, they couldn't cope with a customer complaining that the food wasn't cooked properly, and got dead shirty, especially when I didnt leave them a tip and explained loudly to them why I wasnt leaving a tip!

Gastonomic problems were sorted when I got to Flagstaff, and went to a great bar/restaurant called the Whistle Stop or something like that. Good food and great beer (the landlord was English), and as for the fry up I had at the Motel near Canyon de Chelly, marvellous. Best fried chicken I have had outside home - made up for the lack of alcohol.

Whinge moan sob, talking about food is upsetting me. Except for Easter Lunch, I have been surviving on a diet of bad chinese, as the eating choices where I am working is Macdonalds (not to be eaten even if it were the Last thing on the planet) or really really really poor Chinese (so, far, I have counted 13 different ways you can slaughter sweet and sour chicken!!!) - I could even cope with Monty's underdone chicken!

*****, whinge whine moan belch

Hmm, Red Hot Poker
I'm charging you with sex abuse.

It sounds like they got you. Around here you can't critize anyone, even if your right. You have to apologize politely before asking for a problem to be fixed. BUT three times, I would have walked...

Coopersville (owned by Alice Cooper) sports bar has some fun decor and it's nearby all of the downtown stadiums. Did you take in a game?


BTW: Smoked Barbequed Chicken will have some pink inside, even when fully cooked. But, I bet you know that.

Sorry to hear of your gastrointestonal distress, but don't blame me - as my member info line says, I live in Ole Virginny. Plenty of fine restaurants (and quality microbrews) here!

Wardad, I did walk eventually, but only at a fast shuffle toward the nearest lavatory facilities.

I know what you mean. I do like complaining to Americans in the service industry, it absolutely throws them. When they ask you if everything was OK with your meal, you say, fine thanks but the sprouts were overcooked and the butter on the carrots was rancid, they just look absolutely po-faced and dont know how to react. Laugh? keeps me cheery on my foreign travels... at least to the US anyhow...

I did rather enjoy Cooperstown. The food was pretty good and cheap, the music was loud, the waitresses all had funny eye make up and the beer was actually quite good.

Didnt catch a game however. The Arizona Sun Devils (whatever they are) were apparently playing something, but dont ask me what. It is probably baseball or basketball or something and I dont understand either. I would have quite liked to catch a game though. I saw the 49ers play at Candlestick Park years and years ago and quite enjoyed the spectacle.

Wow, American beer doesn't get any better than that.
