I mean, it’s not like you couldn’t eat your fill from the salad bar… there were tons of non-meat items… but I wouldn’t think it would be worth the price. How many bushels of asparagus would one have to eat to make it worth 40 bucks? Your waiter was probably thinking, <i>”Senora, what are you doing HERE?”</i><br /><br />I’ll tell you how we’re friends… a well-rounded person should have a well-rounded circle of friends. If everyone agrees with everything that all their friends think and do, what’s left to talk about?<br /><br />Although it’s funny… my best buddies back in Ohio are very politically conservative, so we agree not to talk politics. Best not to beat our heads against the wall.

As you know, I am the resident vegetarian in these comments (and Catholic to boot. How are we friends again?? I kid), and so I left a little hungry. Even the "salad" bar at the Pittsburgh location was loaded with meat and animal products. As I have to sometimes remind resaurants: Vegetarians don't actually eat fish. Fish is not a vegetable. <br /><br />As we started, skewer after skewer was placed RIGHT NEXT TO ME. After about the fifth skewer came to the table, my husband leaned over to the server and said, "Could you not put that next to her? She's a vegetarian." <br /><br />He's a good man.red pen mamahttp://redpenmamapgh.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329507352453931374.post-46568914599409638092012-02-29T18:31:22.063-05:002012-02-29T18:31:22.063-05:00I took all of the larger pictures.

Plus the price point helps… I believe that lunch is $31, with dinner around $50. Think of how much meat you can buy at the grocery store for that kind of money… more than you can eat in one sitting, that’s for sure.<br /><br />I would love to know, though, if a pro football team has ever gone there. I bet THEY would get their money’s worth! And I just love the mental image of big Casey working on a skewer of beef like corn on the cob.
