today's observation

I observed the chef to touch her face with her hands a lot while I placed my order. I hate when I catch chefs/food service workers doing that. This chef probably doesn't even know what she has done and won't wash her hands before she prepares my food. Blah.

found hair in deli pasta

I was ready to enjoy some pesto pasta but the first forkful ruined it for me. A long strand of hair was entwined within the pasta. I know for a fact the hair wasn't mine. See for yourself in the photo. Why does this have to happen to me? In the words of the wise, "At least it's straight hair." Somehow I'm not comforted by that thought.

spider roll

While I was eating lunch, I saw a little white spider dance across my plate. I don't know whether or not the spider walked out of my sushi (no, it was not supposed to be the spider roll), or if the spider fell from the tree above the patio. He died a swift death.

cold sores

What's worse than a cold sore? A person with a cold sore digging into community food with his/her personal chopsticks. You just can't make this stuff up.
