Come Back to Us, Taco Queen!


So, J is out of the office today, so R and I were able to go to Taco Del Mar (TDM) for fish tacos. J is TDM phobic.

A few things caught our eye today.

1) The taco queen is missing. Our favorite (and most efficient) taco artist has not made an appearance during our last two visits. Perhaps the "taco queen in training" had her whacked with a Mondo Burrito or she died from an excessive cholesterol count.

2) Checkered black and white converse style high tops with a matching purse. No, B and R were not wearing this, however someone was- and she had a bodyguard to protect her in case there were comments.

3) The Psychic Paleontologist. After rubbing the sand decor on the food line the right way (B and R believe she thought the fish drawings in the sand were real fossils) she proceeded to have a psychic connection lunch with her lunch partner. Hello, Dionne Warwick...are you there? Intense eye contact and very little verbal talking. Plus, she was licking her burrito....I swear.



B's ratings:

Lunch 4/5

Good times 4/5
Missing the Taco Queen 5/5

I'm pretty sure burrito licking is illegal in 15 states. You should check to see if yours is one of them.

The Jack Shack

We've all been either too busy or too lazy to write about our lunchtime adventures, but know this - we have had lunches - some were fabulous, others were sadly disappointing (Mali Thai) and at least one was down-right scandalous (Joey's). So to make up for the long absence, I'll thrill you with our adventure to: Joeys (their apostrophe is missing, not mine)... Even though I was warned , I had to see it for myself. Joey's is Cowboy Ugly and the Pussy Cat Dolls Lounge all rolled into one, great-big southend jack shack. To get the full effect, we sat in the bar where all the waitresses are 1. Former female strippers, 2. Current female strippers, and 3. Really know how to sex up an entree so you'll want to buy it. At first, I was overcome with the smart, sleek interior design. I felt like I was at The Parker in Palm Springs . The architecture is open and modern, the colors hip, and the booths are sleek. I was so busy ogling the fabulous design that I didn't even s...

M. Dares Casino Food

Today, we have a special report from faithful (and intrepid) reader, M. on the Riverside Casino: Today I rolled the dice and had lunch at the Riverside Casino. Thai Curry Chicken Fried Rice was highly recommended to me by someone....that I can only assume doesn't eat out much. I mean the guy raved about this dinner and I just don't get the hub-bub. But they do have pad t hai and I'm a sucker for pad t hai so I might actually venture back one day. Their parking lot is packed lunch & dinner hours and I mean PACKED! I don't feel I have solved the mystery is it food or the card games? On a positive note, the service was fast. You will not get a seat at the Baccarat table - that area is non-stop action from open to close, but the restaurant portion has plenty of open tables if you go before 1pm. The place is open 24/7 and serves breakfast, lunch or dinner anytime. No website. The place does not smell like smoke - it had a recent remodel and is decent. And I have easil...
