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...

Nov. 1, 2009 - Central Ohio Thanksgiving - 2009

I wonder what Central Ohio restaurants are going to be open on Thanksgiving?  Now that Halloween is behind us, time to think about over the river and through the woods to grandmothers house we go... or if no grandmotherly soul is preparing a feast in 2009 with a place set for you... what restaurants are open?

There was a private comment here (did you know you can do that here?   You can. It's kind of like whispeing in my ear....)  about Thanksgiving 2009...  then I saw someone reading   Columbus Best Turkey Dinner?   from back in 2006.  Yes I can see when someone is reading I can NOT see who is reading... well to a certain extent I can...  but I can see when someone is on a post.  And if you leave a nasty comment with naughty words from your place of employment'sinternet account that shows up too... but that's another story. 

Happy Thanksgiving thoughts..  pumpkin pie... turkey.  At home or away...

Where would you look for which restaurants are  open on Thanksgiving?  I would look at the Columbus Dispatch website and the Experience Columbus website or blog?  I know for either Mother's Day or Easter they have done posts about what  is open or Tweeted links to something about what restaurants were open

I'd love to hear from you if you have a comment on the topic.  Thanks. Copyright 2008 Discover Columbus and Maureen McCabe

Jun. 19, 2008 - Free Iced Coffee Today

Remember free iced coffee at Tim Horton's today...

Tim Horton's is no longer part of Wendy's is it? ... wait Wendy's is no longer part of Wendy's is it... Or Wendy's is going through a change...

There are plenty of Tim Horton's around Central Ohio aren't there? 

Not an iced coffee drinker?  Prefer iced tea?  What kind?
