Yay, food in a restaurant without a health inspection!

Right?

@GF - I can't think off the top of my head of any non-allowed foods or drinks that I'd like to have.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

huh? like health inspections are unbribable :rolleyes:

So because there is some risk that a health inspector is corrupt - we should just give up on health inspections? :huh:

That's why Martinus, for all his spending on the trappings of wealth and taste, will never really have class.  He's just trying too hard to be something he isn't (an intelligent, tasteful gentleman), trying desperately to hide what he is (Polish trash with money and a severe behavioral disorder), and it shows in everything he says and does.  He's not our equal, not by a mile.

You know, most Gaming, Fish and Wildlife LEAs have tactical teams, too.  Would love to see snobs getting the MP5 treatment, down on their faces, getting zip-tied for illegal goose livers.  Fucking criminals.

Do they use lamb on gyros? Cause otherwise I don't think I've ever had any.  :hmm:

Sometimes.  Traditionally, gyro's a blend of lamb, beef, and pork, but a lot of vendors get by with just beef/pork gyros.

As for lamb, the texture's somewhere between veal and pork loin, and it's very mild in comparison to other meats.
Experience bij!

Evidence suggests otherwise.  Some of the biggest fast food chains have crap food.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

You can have healthcode violations and still have tasty (albeit dirty) food.  After all we wouldn't need health inspectors if just by eating the food you could tell that everything was in tip top shape in the kitchen. :P

It's international news because it is a divisive issue. I can understand those who are against foie gras being very interested and pleased about this. I just don't understand why someone like Marti could possible care.

Because injustice anywhere is injustice everywhere. And this is a troublesome trend in the world.

Given Szmik's attitude, I wonder about that food I had in Gdansk a while back.  :(

I'm assuming he's a polack.
