My wife and I sometimes try to pick new places to eat. Most of the time we end up in separate bathrooms at home, pooping out the results.

Today we tried Fuzzy's Taco Shop in Denton. They have two such places in Foat Wuth, so I guess it's nearly a chain.

On the plus side, food was good, they actually put some effort into the tacos, and the sides were good.

The negatives were, it was too expensive ($1.85 for a soft drink), no hots were working there, it was a sports bar atmosphere, and all the furniture was wood. It looked like something I made in the ag shop when I was a kid.

Other interesting items. As is my custom, I carried my Glock in, and there were at least a dozen law enforcement types there eating. I guess I didn't have to do that. Also, the cashier, if cleaned up properly, would have been really attractive. Alas, she had three tattoos on her hand, another on her arm, and looked like she had been on somebody's webcam show until 5:00 this morning.

I think I'll say thumbs up for Fuzzy's Taco Shop. They have a website, http://www.fuzzystacoshop.com.

so, you carry your Glock around in case a New Years celebration breaks out?

That's a good way of putting it.

Back in the eighties, I used to work for Oshman's Sporting Goods. I was shocked when we sold every damned box of ammo on December 31. I was so naive that somebody had to explain to me that all of my brown brothers were going to shoot that stuff off at midnight.

Hoob.

meskins get lazy in their adulthood, and instead of whacking the pinata with a stick, they mow that fucker down.

Lately my attempts to try Mexican food have not been good, and many of them have ended up with hard sprints to the restroom. I don't see how places can mess up Mexican food, but we have found a few lately that did.

Saturday we played way out in Sachse, and I noticed a restaurant called Asado's nearby, so we went there before the gig.

The food was good. I had tacos al carbon, and they gave me plenty to eat. They also didn't ruin it by putting sour cream all over it. In fact, it wasn't anywhere on my plate. Sour cream on Mexican food was made for white people to eat and is not a part of authentic Mexican food.

They had a page of expensive foods on one spread (two pages) of the menu, and they had more traditional pricing on another spread. I was able to eat my meal and drink two beers for $16, which is good.

Most of the female wait staff was cute, and they were all friendly.

I think I'll rip a well-liked place today: la Madeleine.

If a place is not a traditional eating establishment and has different "rules" for ordering and getting your food, they should make it plain to new customers. For example, Babe's system of ordering and eating food is different, but they tell you that as soon as you set down.

But not these hoitty-toitty French bread baking sons of bitches. If Mrs. Hoob hates you, you suck.

The food didn't come close to matching its price. So F la Madeleine. I have money to spend, but it won't be going there again.

Hoob.

the wifey and i ate at one of those several years ago. i don't have the words to describe how underimpressed we were.

You're both wrong.

My idea of a dream job:

Pissing in the batter that they use to fry up Stuckey's chicken. Somebody has that job. Or maybe they use a horse to do it. It's nasty.

I thought this chain went away 30 years ago, but a truck stop in Decatur converted from a Church's to a Stuckey's. Same building, same employees. But when they changed the sign, the food changed. I've tried it twice, threw it away uneaten both times.

So, eat at Stuckey's and get gas.

So the Missus drags me to Fuzzy's and we find out that if we go back and refill our drinks, it's a dollar. Really? Your food was colder than your drinks. Please die.

I don't understand the love for that place.

Neither Fuzzy's in Arlington and never paid for a refill. And the grilled shrimp tacos are great.

I misunderstood their $1 refill policy. The rule is, bring your Fuzzy's cup back and get your drink for a dollar.

A Rosa's opened in Denton and I went there today. Meh. Got a taco plate, was nothing special. Well, the speed that it raced through my digestive system was especially special. Damn.

It wasn't very expensive, though, and you get the food fast. I'll probably go back.

ate at one in Arlington and the one by UTD and never paid for refills. (except on beer)
Love the shrimp tempura tacos!

I met a Cle charachter that noone knows about at Fuzzys in Arlington.
