I'm sorry that you haven't ever had good food. 'Tis a shame, because there are lots of great places, even in San Jose. Hell, I feel so sorry for you that I may take you to dinner sometime.

I almost put the same quote in about the payment for food part in my original post. I still will never forget the conversation we had before your first trip to the Commerce.

You: So you get free food in the top section, huh?

Me: I'm not sure which part of this claim is less true. The "Free" (you pay for it later, for sure) or the "food."

You: How is it for cardroom food?

Me: Why don't you try it out and let me know.

Leaving the joint 48 hours later:

You: That sh!t was nasty. You were right, let us never speak of this again.

Me: OK.

at the commerce, if you get up from the table to go for a dinner brake, if you tell the floor-man, he allow you 45 minutes or more. so, mike and i tell jack we're going to leave to get something to eat. he says ok. we drive over to the bike to eat. some of the other players overheard us talking before we left and they told jack where we went and he picked us up.

actually the commerce used to have good food back before they built the hotel and expanded. they had this good asian seafood dish. i can't remember what it was called.

I have problems with table spacing and a few other minor things at Commerce but I've enjoyed nine out of the last ten meals I've had there (all comped BTW). The one meal I didn't enjoy may have been because I was stuck. Some of you guys are spoiled or just plain "nitty" when it comes to casino food.

~ Rick

PS to Gabe: You may be the biggest food nit I've ever known. You've pushed away more really good food the three or four times we've been out with other 2+2 types than I have in a lifetime. Didn't your parents tell you about the starving kids in India?
