BMG & Linguine, you know call-a-spade-a-spade-me....sorry to report, but Morgaine7 & I stopped in there for breakfast....based solely on your
recommendation. I looked over the menu & figured a shrimp omelet wouldn't have anything HOT in it. The waitress couldn't understand me (nor
apparently Morgaines' Espanol!) so she got the cook, who did speak English I
said no onions, no hot peppers, nothing hot or spicy. He said okay....I was obviously lax in omitting to mention that 1/2 cup of black pepper
(possibly 3/4 cup....but I was too busy choking to take time out for a more accurate quantity check!) mixed into the eggs before cooking wouldn't be
acceptable either. There was so friggin much black pepper in there that I choked on the first bite....I took a second bite to make sure it wasn't all
just in one spot....choked again....the waitress studiously avoided our table & I came damn closed to finding my way back to the kitchen on my own
for a piece of bread to get the pepper out of my throat. I ate the shrimp in a failed attempt to get the pepper out of my throat. I left all the
rest of the omelet; I did tell the waitress I'd choked on the black pepper & the waitress informed me that black pepper is not hot! They didn't offer to adjust the bill for my inedible meal, so I paid, but that's the
first last & only time I'll darken their doorstep.
Morgaine7, the spicy senora enjoyed her meal, naturally!
I agree with Jesse, their portions are really small compared to their prices....but maybe they expect to their patrons to just toss a $500 peso bill
on the table in their rush to ER for oxygen!
Thanks for bumping this back to the top twogringos....sorry my opinion of the place is rabidly opposed to yours. More table space for you &
BMG! |
