Mr. HR & I went to a GREAT Italian place in KCMO a couple of years ago recommended by a local Italian...but we couldn't get a cab to come take us back to the hotel...figured it was some kInd of "embargo". Seems like the name was Garfolo's or something.

Damn. Now I miss CF, used to get Tons of Fun all the time. Wonder if there's one in Kansas? Oh well...There are 2 in the Kansas City area. One on the Plaza, and one in Overland Park, just east of Metcalf on 119th Street. Mark

Yeah.....a great bar when you walk in...seems like the door is on the corner of the building, which forms a corner, but why no cabs would come get us, I've no idea.

Here's another website for spices you might be interested in:
Penderys. If you're ever in the Fort Worth area go to their store it's a must for chiliheads especially, but they have every spice you can think of. The store itself has been in the same location for 135 years, not too far from the historic Stockyards district. Quite a conincidence with the names as close as they are.

Heh -- yeah, that is odd.

It was a BLT (Bacon, Lettuce, and Tomato) sandwich, and they used a one pound package of bacon (pre-cooked weight) on that sandwich!
Best sandwich ever.

I also like yellow fried hominy smothered with ketchup, with eggs and toast and ham for breakfast. Yum!

"My family knows a man who's alergic to gluten, and when he goes out to eat, he has to be very careful about what he orders, and in a situation like this, he wouldn't be able to eat the chicken."
If he was really that allergic to gluten he wouldn't be able to eat out. No one is going to guarantee that their food is completely free of such a basic ingredient. It is the same with people who are allergic to peanuts. Eating out is a health risk for them too. That is too bad, but you can't really feel sorry for them if they intentionally risk their health that way.
So he can't eat the chicken? Don't order it. No one is forcing anyone to eat food that isn't prepared to their requirements.
