"I was in grandma's neck of the cactus patch and was pleased to see some new ownership and style take up in the old Mexican restaurant we used to haunt. The Spotted Donkey represents a HUGE improvement over the previous joint, in decor (saucy industrial chic), menu (crazy creative), and execution.\n\nEverything was delicious and well presented, if a little over the top and Texas-style in proportion. I took 2/3 of my entree home and we never did finish those chips. Speaking of which...\n\n$7 for chips and salsa?? Is this a social experiment??? Am I being tape-recorded for reaction? Am I at the Giant's stadium? Is there some unspoken guarantee that in eating these chips I will experience spontaneous orgasm daily over the next week? Please someone explain before I take the rest of the stars away, too."^^ . . "3"^^ . .
