Okay, so they may not want to hang your picture on a wall
but the fact that they did not acknowledge what transpired
at all speaks to me more than their food ever could
I have no desire to go there ever
Well in their defense the âMixed Grill Challengeâ is just something, a title, I made up. There is nothing official about it, the restaurant does not advertise nor promote this as an actual eating challenge at all. Itâs really just a dare or doubt that @corvette_johnny had after eating here himself, ordering this dish and commenting that no individual let alone two could finish it.
So with that said I wouldnât judge the restaurant too harshly.
Yes I understand that completely
But a table of individualâs quite obviously having a great time
and documenting it IMO warrants at the very least a table visit/
acknowledgment from management
Ok, I understand your position. The only thing I will add to any of this is the fact I threatened to eat the waiters arm, when I mistakenly thought he was removing the yet unfinished mixed grill plate during one of my âbreaksâ, could have intimidated them.
Was here last week as I had to try the mixed grill which I Shared with my BW due to the âhypeâ established from the big event
Your assessment was spot on.
Would humbly like to add felt overall dish tad dry.
BTW Great job!
WowâŚThank you very much!! Iâm honored that my high jinks both inspired you to go to Apella and try the mixed grill -AND- to join Hungry Onion to tell us about it!! Thank you and Welcome!!! (see @hungryonion I am good for something!!!)
Just out of curiosity since your profile indicates you just joined, how did you learn of the pending challenge etc. (are you from Chow also? I donât recognize your handleâŚjust like to know how and where people find us)
Thanks again for the kind words and welcome once again!!
BTWâŚseriously 5 Pete and Eldas? 2 wouldnât be sufficient? Is there some kind of record already standing at 4 tee shirts so you are trying to get me to beat this? Where are you coming up with 5? Suddenly I"m the resident HO competitive food eater. lol
Sorry it was a really long day yesterday - meant to post.
That was one of the best HODowns Iâve ever been to! JR is awesome. He should have his own show on the food network. Curlz continues to be one of the nicest people Iâve ever met. And even though we havenât seen each other in about ten years since we met and ate with our wives at Westlake in Matawan, JSfein and I greeted each other like old friends. It was jokes and good food and Greek waiters with âDonald Trump Hugeâ sausages all night.
Iâve never been a big fan of the thin crust pie, so Iâve only been to P&E a few times. Now Iâm curious and will have to stop in to see if Iâm up to this challenge. Lol
