So we strolled around and came across Los Feliz, the place I had my 29th b-day party :) This was the last time I had eaten there, and even though I was so-so about the ceviche, we decided to give it another try.
This sign was the deciding factor--it definitely got my attention! I hadn't had anything to eat since lunch (I usually always have a late afternoon snack), so I totally chowed down on the chips and guac--it was so yummy. Thank goodness the entrees were small!
I got the chicken quesadillas. Purty, huh?
Bf got the chorizo con rajas tacos. I don't know what that green/orange concoction is. I'm surprised he didn't try it actually--he's much more adventurous with food than I am!
And when we left, I noticed the other side of the sign. Nice. The next time Dina Lohan gives me the "Everyone's picking on Lindsay/She just wants to work" speech (and she has), I will laugh in her face. Oh fine, no I won't. I'll probably just get her talking about dating and STDs again.
Isn't it funny how a simple as a sign can make you want to try something? (Ohh and remember this one I saw in Chinatown?!) Have you ever tried a restaurant or bought something totally random based on the marketing/advertising for it?
Love the Mr. T sign. And the food looks quite good. We have a store in Halifax called Th Freak Lunchbox...sells candy that you can't get anywhere else and all kinds of saucy, in-your-face kitsch. I bought my mom a Jesus Action Figure (not really religious, more of a funny thing for us) because it was too funny and marketed just like a GI Joe or something. Loves the random marketing. I also loved the whole "Diamond Shreddies" marketing from a couple years ago.
ReplyDeleteI love random Marketing as well, I buy tons of things due to marketing ! That food looks Great !
