We went to the Alamo on Saturday to see Rare Exports (very good!). This may very well be our last time at this particular drafthouse though because we are fed up with how rude the workers are. However since this is about food let's get down to that and not dwell on the "college kids" they hire. The only thing we have ever been impressed with so far is the artichoke pizza which was still just good, not the best. This time Shannon had the spaghetti squash with pomodoro sauce and Miguel had the spicy black bean burger. In Miguel's opinion both items were gross, he described the squash as slimy and the burger as being a cold handful of beans smushed onto the bun. Shannon thought the burger was nothing special and the cheese was especially bad quality making it taste very cheap. However she loved the spaghetti squash, she thought it was a great pasta replacement and as a pasta lover.. that means something, right? Now for the good news, we ordered a raspberry milkshake and it was TO DIE FOR! Of course it was Amy's ice cream so maybe they don't deserve the credit but maaan was it good. We slurped it down entirely too fast, it was surprisingly good quality with real raspberry chunks and chocolate covered sunflower seeds on top. So we may just have popcorn and milkshakes from now on but we will still frequent the Drafthouses for the love of movie, maybe just the ritz or lake creek instead.
