I thought the KFC barbecue sandwiches weren't half bad.

I sure hope that none of this comes as a surprise to anybody. Eat fast food at your own risk.

A long time ago I worked as a waiter in a well-known upscale restaurant in Birmingham. One night I was in the kitchen and saw a large, whole fish. I asked one of the cooks what it was. He said grouper. I knew that we didn't have grouper on the menu and gave him a look. He said we sell it as trout. Good times.

I've personally witnessed Johnny Ray's waitresses on Valley Ave. scooping beans and potato salad and cole slaw into those little bowls with bare hands during rush hour. Who needs a spoon or ladle?

I looked in a Moe's drive through window in Hoover and the cook was eating McDonalds laid out on the table literally next to the restaurant food.


definitely eat out at your own risk.

Golden Rule, Irondale. c. 1990.

Dinner date and I are sitting down to dinner when I see they have pie by the slice. I'm thinking if I'm not too full, I'll have me a slice.

So, about 2/3 of the way through our dinner, I see a waitress coming out of the kitchen with a pie in her hands. She sets it on the counter and commences to carve it up. She takes a knife and makes her first cut, licks both sides of the knife, and makes her second cut.

I did not have a slice of pie. It was all I could do to keep from running screaming out the door.

Cheeseburger-cheeseburger in about 2008. The waitress was checking the toppings on each burger and licking her thumb to cool it off after checking the contents.

Monday night - at a local establishment I ordered Makers Mark and watched the bartender pour it from the red wax capped bottle. By the time it got to my drink coaster it had turned into Jim Beam red stag.

70% of CNN.com is celebrity crap.

I'd rather read about cockroach fries and buggut soup at Golden Corral on al.com

If you see it cooking the food or it tries taking your order, let us know.

It's a good thing you were not at that restaurant in West End where the owner shot at a patron who complained about a roach.

La Cosina, c.1994

Waiter comes by to refill tea glasses. It's hot in the place. Line of sweat runs from his elbow, down his forearm, and right into the glass of tea he's refilling.
