Stay clear of the ginger ale. It tastes like a combination of a forest fire and cough syrup.

The Bloody Mary I had was served with a pickle instead of a celery stalk. A mouthful of pickle seeds can be a bit... off-putting.

have the Tempeh Club and a beer or two. Immediately afterwards race cross town, bonus points for not passing out in a food coma.
