It's ok everyone.  I've ordered some Puerto Rican food for dinner.   The Horns have NEVER lost a game in any sport when we ate Puerto Rican for dinner that night.

I'm deciding between (a) selling it to you at an outrageous discount (b) selling it on ebay for not much less than we paid for it or (c) giving it to my 6 year old.

Doesn't work.  Too many calories in them bubbles.

I recommend garlic free PR food and Indian food made by someone from Central America.

I'll wait for the bubbles to subside then. Thanks for the heads-up.

Garlic-free PR food would do the trick, because that would basically be an empty plate. So I think you're on to something.

But about the Astros, ... say what you will about the Manager and Management, the way these guys play between the lines, Rodriguez, out, and coaching a slide into 2nd!  These guys just love to play baseball.

Article in today's Times, Paper of Record? Local fish wrap? You know the one the bums sleep under, complaining about beer bars, "A Beer Please and a (Good) Menu" by Eric Asimov, noted that few of them make a decent burger and that a waitress, on her second day on the job couldn't provide details about all 40 craft beers.  Then he protested he wasnt pretentious.  Also, I have a solution to your drinking problem, single malts (kinda ironic) but cask strength.  2 will do.

What's with you? Why do you think that people who care about food and drink and won't be content with eating reheated corporate crap and drinking rerefrigerated corporate crap are 'pretentious?' And why do you need to misrepresent what was said in the article you reference? The author asked for information on a certain beer (in a beer bar, a place that prides itself on the craft beers it offers on tap) and the waitress had no idea. Asimov doesn't protest anything. He merely notes the discordance between an establishment built on a certain concept and an employee of that establishment who knows nothing of the concept.

And mendicants are far more likely to sleep under or on top of the Post or the Daily News. I don't know if either offers restaurant reviews, but if so they would surely be more in line with your unpretentious tastes.

"Other times, it’s simply a clueless staff, as at Spitzer’s Corner on the Lower East Side, which calls itself an American gastro-pub and offers 40 craft beers on tap. A waitress was mystifyingly insistent (maybe because it's her second day and she's doing what she's told?) on carding a certain gentleman whose graying temples lent him a distinguished air (hint: he’s not the fruity-beer type). But when he asked her about Coney Island Sword Swallower, described on the menu as “steel hop lager,” she pleaded ignorance, saying, “It’s just my second day here.”

Could you imagine a waiter at a steakhouse who could not explain the difference between a rib-eye and a porterhouse?

No I can't.  Nor would I expect to quiz a just hired waitress.  I'd not be a douche and go ask the owner or the bartender who is probably making more than a subsistence living from clowns whose goal in life is not to be seen as a fruity beer type.

but he gets his comeupance (unwittingly as he included it) from his final sentence,

I dropped by recently and ordered a Sly Fox Chester County brown ale, which was mellow and subtle, fitting my mood perfectly.

When I asked about food, the bartender handed me a sheaf of delivery menus. “We leave that to the experts,” she said.
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/24/dining/reviews/24pour.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1&ref=dining

I think he left out the bartender's final word, "asshole".  Beer's "serious context" is in a glass.

Turns out they do have food reviews. Since you get so upset by people taking food and beverages seriously you could surely seek refuge there. I see something about an Italian place titled "Lotsa Pasta!" and something about a steak frites joint titled "Blue La La!"
