If you Google Splash, you come up with a lot of info on a gay restaurant/bar chain or franchises in the states. Is this place related? Are the
waiters fully clothed? Do they sing Broadway musical tunes while serving that chicken fried steak? Are Goat and Gull in the chorus line?
Jes wonderin'.

Today at Sunday Breakfast at Splash
Our waiter said, in greeting us with a big smile, "We saw the nice things you said about our Chicken-fried Steak on Nomad."
I have never said anything to anyone there about posting on Nomad or revealed my (no longer) anonymous persona.
Believe me, folks. People are reading and taking note.
OH, BTW, if you care, I had the lobster bisque and the Spinach salad - everything was fresh, flavorful, delicious - so good.
(Also, BTW, I do not represent the owners or management and I have never been offered or taken a free meal.)

The financial partner in Splash -- the one who put up the money -- is an American named Jim McGill.

Why does it matter why it matters? The place is foreign owned and all profits go off-shore to benefit despots, terrorism and child slavery. That
isn't the "Mexican Way"...is it?

Thought Mr. McGill was the texan who cooks at Pescador, which is owned by a bro of Splash' owner? may be just a vicious rumor tho

I wonder if Jesse thinks chicken fried steak is a good way to promote Mexican haute cuisine? I'm not too sure Gypsy Jan had a "fresh" lobster bisque
. Lobster season on the US West Coast and Mexico runs October to March. It was probably a frozen langosta from Australia, via Costco.

I Never Stated That the Lobster Bisque
Was fresh
I did say it was delicious. It even had some shell fragments in the broth.
Last week, we had the clam chowder, which was also delicious; such good rich creamy flavor.
I know it is not lobster season, and it is not a month with an "R" in it, but both soups were rich, creamy and well-flavored with the unique saltiness
of the ocean.
Our daughter was mesmerized by the vision of the breaking waves and the pelicans and seagulls flying overhead.

In my opinion, frozen lobster from Australia or New Zealand is superior to fresh local bugs.
