The Velveteria
« on: March 09, 2006, 09:18:46 pm »
So the wife and I went out to eat at our local Cuban restaurant (Pambiche) the other day, and we parked about a block away, right in front of The Velveteria. I don't know if we just have a dearth of good topics to write about locally, but here's another article. This is the front window. Photos aren't allowed, but this guy isn't one for following rules. Unfortunately, there is no picture of the sign on the door that proudly proclaims "Esperanto spoken here" (this is for Asherdan).

Also, the citysearch review of the restaurant in question, and, given that it's Portland, a review of the restrooms. "Dropping a yucca root", indeed.

I saw the title of this, and expected it to be about a restaurant that served dishes made with Velveeta.

Dude, I totally read that subject and thought it was going to be a Velveeta owned cafeteria, which would be a good pairing with my future restaurant, Spam Cafe.

No.  No, there will not be Vikings.  I'm not playing this for yuks.  I'm serious.

So does that mean you won't be promoting your restaurant through the use of mass unsolicited e-mails?
