Sometimes, an establishment spends too much time reading its press clippings. After a long walk to Charles Fort, we decided to have lunch at the Fishy Fishy Cafe we heard so much about. Hungry and anticipating a wonderful lunch, we were met by a surly host who was doing his best Studio 54 bouncer impersonation. Before we could say a word, he curtly said, "We're full, come back in 2 hours."

Most annoying about this was, there were plenty of seats available. Then, about 2 minutes later, a couple was let in without a wait. Fine with us. We went around the corner and got a fine meal at a pizza take-away place.

Now we had been walking all day and were wearing hiking boots and raincoats. But it wasn't as though we were dressed like bums. If that's the attitude of Fishy Fishy Cafe's management, there are plenty of establishments who are more than happy to take my money, no matter what I look like.

Favorite Dish: I wouldn't know. Apparently, I'm not good enough to eat here.
