Zantigo Amigo!!!

Depravity takes hold on Saturday night... Begin the night at my place with Bundy's new throwdown Rum's (keep em' little, to keep it cold, yo), and a little bit of Australia vs. New Zealand rugby, (snore...) and head off to Ju Ju's Japanese Karaoke Restaurant (Shop 320, Kingsgate Shopping Center, King's Cross, Sydney 93577100.) Rule 1 - Shoes must be placed in plastic carry bag, and taken to your seat. Rule 2 - Do not continue drinking your rum and coke, as you walk into the restaurant.

Our Japanese hosts were not impressed (even though they kept yelling "pop idol" at me after I sang Mustang Sally). They insisted that we "drink sake slower". The food, was fantastic, and is a good example of the privileged life we experience here in Oz ($35 each for booze and food). Every ethnic food type, in it's most exquisite form, is available at our doorstep. The only thing I miss from home is Chilito's.

I am not, however, talking about the gut bombs that Uncle Grambo attempted to order the night before his birthday... I am talking about the original, perfect creation.. the joy of my childhood existence... the one and only... all but wiped out by coporate shit heads and Challupa purveyors, the Zantigo's Chilito. According to chilicheese.org... Taco Bell killed off Zantigos, but ALAS, there is hope for Minnesotans. The original, wax paper wrapped chilito is still available. The website, listed as Zantigo.net, does not seem to be available... But you can still pig out at the following locations. If you're there around Christmas, I'm the guy with eight chilitos, a root beer and a bag full of Gap boxers.
