In fact I didn't finish all the fries from the second plate. I am incredulous. 🙂 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First I tried to verify the salt and pepper situation and to my dismay, there were neither available. As if that was not bad enough, take note of my baked macaroni plating. The blue bowl was placed on a red plate 😲 😱. My mom's was correctly plated red matching red but mine was sloppily put together and not one person caught it before serving me this way. Disgraceful. Shocking, and are those chips behind in a white dish? Worse and worse. As to the cruets, there was a famous and excellent restaurant in London in the 1980s, where the proprietor, Nico Ladenis, never put salt and pepper on the table, and sometimes threw people out for asking for them, on the grounds his dishes were perfectly seasoned. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 17, 2023 Author #1778 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Karaoke is my only option for music right now without dressing. I got the last seat in the house, but everyone is dressed it's not like all the hobos came here and that's why it's full.

Hot sauce makes everything better. But a chef so full of himself to tell customers how to enjoy their food. Not for me 😆 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 17, 2023 Author #1781 Share Posted October 17, 2023 I don't know exactly how long that was going to go on for. It was popular but just not for me. I am wrapping up my evening now. Tomorrow is Naples and the plan is to walk around and sightsee after my mom explores the shopping opportunities. I might do the hop on hop off bus if it's not too busy. The one in Malaga was ok because I beat the crowds, but Barcelona was a mad house. Good night everyone. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are multiple restaurants like that in the Bay Area. But usually they are perfectly seasoned. 🙂 Edited October 17, 2023 by Petersonfcu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exlondoner Posted October 18, 2023 #1798 Share Posted October 18, 2023 I believe there is a similar one in Genoa, but I think the Terminal in Naples is quite magnificent and the best I have seen, with Cherbourg a close second. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 18, 2023 Author #1799 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Stopped back on board before I venture out on my own. My mom hit the shopping lotto in the terminal building. Very nice. I'm going to grab a little lunch and then head out into the city 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
