Nov. 16, 2009 - Columbus wash your hands
Columbus wash your hands... all of us because of the flu season of course... More importantly those who works at restaurants. Wash your hands!
I believe I got food poisoning in one of my favorite Columbus restaurants Friday evening... it is probably on more than one "Favorite Restaurant" lists here. It is not fine dining. Many of my friends would not eat there.
Will I ever be able to go back?
Can I order my favorite meal on their menu?
Only time will tell.
I believe it was food poisoning.
Our order took forever.... we go to the restaurant a lot and we have never had to wait this long for an order, our waiter came by to say the food would be out soon...
"His" food came cold, he'd ordered vegetarian. My order came hot. I'd ordered a dish with meat. When the waiter came and asked how everything was we said OK. I am not sure why he said "OK"...
I only ate a little bit of my food but this is a plate that I always take home leftovers. Maybe it is time to say "took." I stopped eating when I believed I swallowed a bite of "not fully cooked poultry" I still took the leftovers home.
The "poultry" was inside something... I could not see it.
We took home leftovers, I threw it out after a miserable, misearable night, morning, early afternoon.
Once long ago I got an uncooked chicken sandwich at a Rax restaurant drive through. I was scarred for years by that experience.
Later in the day Saturday when I was feeling a lot better I got online to see if I could find out about food poisoning... whether "not fully cooked poultry" would make you sick. It seemed like reading a few sites online the usual complaint for food poisoning turned out to be employees "not washing their hands."
Have you ever had food poisoning?
Were you able to eat at the restaurant again?
Could you / would you be able to eat a poultry dish again?
Threw away those leftovers of course...
Columbus restaurant employees wash your hands...
Columbus restaurant employees, please, please, please wash your hands. Please! Fully cooking the poultry is also a step in the right direction...
