Menus
I came home today to find a menu on my door knob. I don't get too many of
these since moving here. When I lived in an apartment, it was a daily event.
The restaurant is some place called Jimmy's Pizza. What struck me first was
written under "Jimmy's Pizza" were the following words:
Pizza, Pasta, Ribs, Wings, Greek, Italian & Mexican Foods...and Burger. (Not
burgers, but burger.)
"What the fuck?" I'm thinking as I open the menu to see all the
sections. This place apparently has it all including Fish & Chips and Deep
Fried Prawn for appetizers.
A look at the Vegetarian Pizza suggests the term
vegetarian simply means everything in the kitchen that is not meat. This pizza
has mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, pineapple, olives, cheese and
tomatoes. (PINEAPPLE AND OLIVES!?)
Questionably the only healthy items on the menu are the yogurt drinks listed
under beverages, but my guess it they are suspect.
Just when I thought I had laughed enough, I turned over the menu to read the
dinner specials which include (italics are how they wrote it) Chicken Codon Bleu,
Chicken Teriyaki, Chicken Stir Fry, Veal Parmesian, BBQ Ribs, Pan Fry
Paper Steak, Halibut Neptune and my all time favorite...Jagar Schnitzel.
I don't know about you, but I prefer the restaurants where I dine to more or less
hone in a specialty of some sort. I'm not sure I could eat at a jack-of-all-trades kind of
place like Jimmy's.
