22 July 2012

Breakfast: microwaved grits (which turned out pretty bad) and butter plus coffee

       Snack: some spoon sized shredded wheat

       Lunch:  We went to the Boot Hill Casino Restaurant and I  had:

  • several teaspoons of chili
  • cooked spaghetti and sauce
    • sauteed ham,
    • sauteed garlic,
    • sauteed noodles
    • and white sauce
  • two rolls with butter
  • an overcooked and low on meat chicken back
  • a potatoe casserole
  • vanilla ice creamme with chocolate syrup

I was rather pissed off because the chef went straight to the white sauce without telling me he had red sauce in a lidded pan. I had ham because they did not offer hamburger or even Italian sausage.The food turned out well but I would have been happier with red sauce and browned hamburger.

I went to the "Player Desk" to bitch about this. They told me to go talk to the restaurant. This is bullshit! You would think a "Player Desk" would talk with the restaurant on behalf of the customer. Apparently, they don't agree...
I don't like the way the Casino runs the restaurant. We had to pay for the buffet in advance; this was too much like a quick food place! Kathie had to pay for her glass of white wine and I had to pay for my "Diet Pepsi" in advance!  I could have gotten a "Diet Pepsi" for free on the casino floor but I don't think I could have taken it into the restaurant.
The Casino Restaurant no longer has breakfast buffet so my breakfast club members card is useless. They no longer have lunch off the menu, you must take a buffet lunch or go to the snack bar. As a side note, they replaced a craps table, at the entrance to the casino, with a hot dog stand.
This ain't no shit!  They really did put in a hog dog stand; it totally lacks class.

       Dinner:  a can of Healthy Choice chicken and rice soup (definitely emergency rations) and a peanut butter and grape jelly sandwich and a glass of cold water.



A couple of hours after going to bed, I "came down with: vomiting. I don't what I ate but Kathie thinks it was some sliced turkey as she wasn't feeling very well herself. This had the main result of screwing up my sleep and causing me to make a couple of errors at work. This reminds me of what Vir Cotto said:
"...it tastes so great going down. Coming up again, it's not so terrific, but-""
