I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Just finished. Goddamn I kept having shivers and tingles there at the end. SO glad they’ve ordered a second season.

Episode 7 was f’n insane. Some of the most intense tv I’ve seen in a while.

I still don’t fully understand their operation as it seems like a mainly takeout with a few tables, yet there was spaghetti on the old menu. Are people doing takeaway spaghetti?

Don't fuck with the spaghetti!


I think they're largely a lunch joint for anyone that works nearby.

i'd like to think if you don't open until 3pm, you have food worthy of a late open.

You’d HAVE to.
let's start a greasy spoon that doesn't open until 5:15pm and closes at 8:27p.

the only thing on the menu is ham sandwiches.

maybe fries too, but that's it.

Yes, same. Seems to be like many small taquerias and thai takeout windows around here. No FOH to speak of but there's a table or two if you want. I wonder if they have a BYOB permit.
