Senor Sucky

You know what restaurant we don't like? Senor Fred on Ventura Boulevard in the valley. It seems like it's recommended all over the place -- citysearch, LA Weekly, people we don't usually associate with being insane. Maybe they were hypnotized!

You know when you get to Senor Fred because there's a big black hole in the cheerful busy beige-white continuum of shops on Ventura. On entering, it's dark, and decorated with a deliberate fakeness remanecent of Disneyland. The various tables and booths are busy, buzzing with the young and the fashionable. House margaritas are too sweet -- they taste like lemonade. The food is grease, and not in a good way as a number of us spent the rest of the evening feeling vaguely ill. It was so bad, we felt like we should have known better, but how could we?

For better margaritas, travel up the street to Casa Vega. For better food go...anywhere!
