| - I went to Stalzy's for lunch today hoping for some quality sandwiches. It started off well, though they only had two beers on tap, they had a good selection of bottled beer. My sister an I each selected a beer and sat down to wait...and wait...and wait. Come on guys, this is a sandwich, not the Mona Lisa. Forty minutes passed and by that time, my sister and I would have thought just about anything was delicious - but it wasn't. Eventually the food came, a thin sandwich with one pickle spear (less garnish than a bloody mary would get). "Do you smell bacon?" I asked. My sister agreed that she did in fact smell bacon. We each took our first bite. Corned beef should not taste like bad bacon! The meat was over-salted in the extreme and somehow dry, stringy, and burnt while still being half chunks of fat. In a single bite, you could experience charcoal, jerky, and all the super-concentrated flavors of the great salt lake. The sauerkraut had little flavor and made the bread (which tasted of nothing) soggy. I took a second bite and decided that I couldn't eat any more. Grossed out and Hangry, we headed for the nearest McDonalds. I'm rather horrified to admit that the McDonalds' food was better. At least the beer at Stalzy's was good, but not even the beer could rid us of the unpleasant salty aftertaste or make us want to ever return.
