Does anyone know what I am referring to? Probably not, because I am the only one from St. Louis, and the only one who would pay attention to horrible commercials advertising mediocre beers...but for some reason the opening line triggered that horrible song in my head, the one which none of you know what I am talking about...
Seeing as we had a full house today, and there was a small downpour of contracts and chits- I did not have enough time to write individual reviews for the 9 orders placed with Bottino's...so I asked everyone to write their own review, or at least an outline of their thoughts, and this is what I was served:
Today Christine ordered the Lasagna Bolognese! It was....sadly disappointing! Crunchy on the outside, mooshy on the inside and cold all around. Christine gives thumbs down for Bottinos' Lasagna Bolognese!
Delora's review came in form of bullet points - I think they are rather self-explanatory yet poignant:
- Tastes like a true French sandwich
- Menu reads "lettuces" not "lettuce"
- Herb mayo good
- Wish I had chips
While I find parts of Dan's entry to be a flat out lie, I will post it as I appreciate him taking the time to write it- with or without lies:
This is my first entry to the blog. C-Cat didn't tell me about it and I find out because she was photographing peoples food. She photographed my very oily Pesto Pasta. The Pesto Pasty reminds me of a Scout who doesn't work here anymore but was the biggest Scout Nerd (she would openly admit it). Suzanne Muir used to get the Pesto Pasta every time she order from Bottino. Back then it wasn't so oily. I think they lost their touch with the pesto. But that is a very new thing, I had a pesto salad two weeks ago and it was oily too. So, i thought I would give it another chance. Still oily.
Anyway, I also had the #9 (Smoked Turkey with herb mayo, Lettuces & Tomatoes). It was served on a Baguette, eehh!! Not awesome! I thought it was going to be awesome, It was OK but not awesome. I'm spoiled.
Actually, it turns out I (this is C-Cat talking again) ordered the same sandwich as Delora and Dan: the #9 on Baguette aka Smoked Turkey with Herbal Mayo, Lettuces & Tomatoes. I also ordered the pasta pesto, which we both Dan and I agreed is hard to complete as the final spirals sinking into the oil pool make us feel like grease balls. Well, we didn't really agree on that, I just decided it on my own, but I am sure he would agree.
Fraaank- Frankie LOVED his soup! A new discovery as no one has gone so far as to order soup from Bottino's - looks like he will have even sweeter dreams tonight than we expected.
Charlie ordered the Roast Beef and Russian Dressing sandwich-- I think I creeped him out when I snuck in and took a picture of his sandwich, so I won't creep him out further and push for a review. We will just go with the noises coming from his mouth during mid-chew, "mmm munch munch mmmmm" as being positive.
I am exhausted from this entry. I can't go any further.
Crista got the Chef Salad and the delicious soup Frank ordered. I wouldn't typically leave Crista's opinion that simple, but she promised to write an entry about Winton's diet, so I will use this lack of detail to motivate her to complete her task!
Bridget ordered the Med. salad, as in Mediterranean- not to be confused with Asian. I sincerely doubt she has touched that salad yet, as her days are busy and she usually doesn't get the chance to eat lunch until after 5pm. I might have to start a special daily posting of what Bridget had the day before.
Teddy stopped by to see his favorite department (or get his paycheck) but, unfortunately for him, we don't get paid until tomorrow. In a fit of rage, he tried to eat my sandwich but I quickly caught on and kicked him out. Forever. We'll miss you!
