Default More Lunch Menu Fun :)

Yes, by now I'm having a lot of fun with this

Lunch special 1/30/2013

Oven Roasted Pork

Topped with sweet mustard glaze
Served with Mash Potato’s with gravy and a side of Steam Vegetables

Okay, Dan Quayle. How do you spell the plural of potatoes? LOL

math some time!

If any of you ever find yourself in Huntington, Indiana, do stop at
the Dan Quayle Vice Presidential Museum.

http://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/9788

One floor is all about US Vice Presidents, the other all about Dan.

ObFood: I stumbled upon this on a road trip. I ate lunch at Nick's
Cafe in Huntington. The walls were decorated with pictures of Dan

Sorry. Fat fingers hit the send key by accident before I was
finished.

Nick's billed itself as the spot where Dan first announced his
candidacy for Congress, i.e. got his start politically. So when I
found out that there was such a thing as a "Dan Quayle Vice
Presidential Museum," I just had to go see it.

Could be a language barrier. But I doubt the chef(s) are the people
sending the lunch and dinner specials via email. More like they farmed
the job out to a 20-something who is more used to texting than typing
and figures this is a leg up in that big career

The Valetine's Day Menu includes an option for 'Beef Tartare' but it's
baked in puff pastry. en croute. How do you bake beef and call it tartare?

The food at Nick's was OK, as I remember (it's been ten years) -
standard Midwestern small town fare.

The museum, OTOH, was precious.

That was what is offered in the 'Dining Room'. I have no idea which
room that is. LOL

But... there is a separate Valentine's Day menu in the Pub. They're
serving Escargot Bourguingon. Described as "snails in sizzling butter
garlic sauce." No mention at all of red wine. Don't ask me why they
call it bourguignon.

yes, don't ask Jill why a dish famous in the Burgundy region of France is
called Escargot Bourguingon

Sounds like a real Klassie establishment with lots of fancy food.

If that's the case, then why don't they call it Escargot *a la*
Bourguignon?

Not in the slightest. There's generic "southern" fried chicken and
there's "Kentucky" brand fried chicken. "Kentucky" fried chicken
brand makes sure, *legally* and by keeping company secrets, that no
one takes the "a la" route.

None of which are called "a la" anything by the common person and you
have not made your point.

I used to work with this girl who really seemed hillbilly. Not sure where
she came from. She got the job in our cafeteria because it entitled her to
a free meal on the days she was working which she fed to and split between
her young 'uns. She had to quit the job because she got some sort of
serious dog bite to her rear end which she showed me. It was really
terrible looking and it sort of crippled her. Not sure what became of her
after that. Anyway... She'd make these announcements on the PA system
about what the special of the day was and she'd say that it came with
"mashataytos".

I just made two points: a la is not required, and you are a dope.

Does this make Diane Sawyer a hillbilly? )

She CANNOT say 'asked'. It's always 'ask' and I have listened closely. I guess it beats 'axed' though.

I think you mean ValeNtine's......see, no one's perfect.

A resto I frequent has "Shepard's Pie" on the menu. I don't dare point that out, as they just printed new menus.

Now, fire away at me, you who think it's a sin to use 'resto'. Let's not and say we did.

My main problem about this lunch menu was the misspelling of "potato's".
Yes, typographical errors occur (as did mine). Then again, I'm not in
charge of emailing daily menus.

Even misspelling it "potatos" would have been preferable to ending it with
the greengrocer's apostrophe!
